Shells
Hi,
What shells are included in Red Hat 8.0? Im thinking of doing a bit of shell programming but am new to linux and am not sure which shells are included. Do most Linux systems use the Korn Shell or can you program with the same commands in any shell? cheers |
Well the default will most likely be bash but I would presume Redhat will come also with:
ash korn (ksh) bourne shell ( sh ) csh And probably many others. They might not be installed by default but probably included on the software cd's where you can install from. |

most linux scripts are made for sh, which bash
will handle. korn shell, csh, and zsh are the other biggies. they all have millions of functions that nobody even knows about. and they can generally emulate each other if necessary. |
