no no no, I meant that I prefer using Bash everywhere, including my own machine, because anyway I'll need to end up translating most stuff I write to a Bash or even POSIX compatible script so... as someone said in other comment, why not cut the intermediary step. It makes it easier for me, the less context switches the better production code I'll produce. But of course, I believe others should be free to make their own choices! As long as their choices don't end up affecting the quality of the code that ends up shared with the rest of the team... Which brings an interesting point: I don't have a problem at all with you using whatever shell you want. But I do have a problem if because you don't use Bash in your day to day, you are less used to its ins and outs, you don't put in the extra work that is being as proficient with Bash than you are with your personal shell, and your scripts end up with bugs in how Bash arrays are treated (just a quickly made up example)
