      Why is that? You can still use bash to interpret your bash scripts. Where does it annoy you?

        I have to switch to bash first, and wonder days later, why I can’t find it (obviously) in my fish history.

          I mean, doesn’t the script have a hash bang pointing to the bash interpreter?

          #!/usr/bin/bash
          

          Or you can just run it like:

          bash script.sh

            #!/usr/bin/env bash for compability. 😉

            For example on my system bash is in /bin.

              Right, of course. I already do that with Python scripts, but with bash old habits die hard, I guess. :)

              Huh. It’s the first thing I write in any script. It actually saves me time. What annoys me is a script that doesn’t have a hash bang. :)
