Perhaps you're right. Perhaps. However, the most important consequence of bash creation and dissemination is that there is a de-facto standard.
So until we don't have another de-facto standard hundreds of thousands of typical shell users are happy with bash. With all its issues, weaknesses and disadvantages...
- Beltalowda 4y agoI'm not so sure people are "happy" with bash, given the complaints that keep returning, and that many aren't aware that zsh is actually different in this regard. I also think the value of being the de-facto standard is somewhat overrated (as is the value of portability by the way); many scripts only run on one platform, one you control. zsh is not hard to install.
