Funny, I have also converged on shell scripts for simple scripting or configuration, but I use /bin/sh for portability. Many of the machines I use do not even have bash installed.
- orwin 6mo agoWhen i talk about my "bash" scripts, i mean sh. I assume this is the same forgp (tbh, i tend to use AWK over bash in 80% of cases, but i call it from bash anyway, and still call it bash scripting :/)
- whstl 6mo agoYep I'm the same. I just call it bash. I think old habits die hard.
- MisterTea 6mo ago> tbh, i tend to use AWK over bash in 80% of cases, but i call it from bash anyway, and still call it bash scripting :/ This makes me sad and sounds very naive. AWK is a fantastic language on its own and should be called out when used as such.
- orwin 6mo agoI'll make you sadder: Even when I call my own AWK modules I put hours in, I still call that a bash script.
