I see, when you realize your argument does not hold water, you resort to name calling. Here are concrete arguments: 1. Debian uses Dash as /bin/sh 2. Ubuntu uses Dash as /bin/sh 3. The POSIX standard defines sh, and by definition Dash is closer to this than Bash 4. Dash is 3-5 times faster than Bash 5. While it might be upsetting to some users, _they_ have made an error in assuming Bash is /bin/sh, it would not be our error in switching to a shell that is closer to POSIX sh Now, perhaps you can add a constructive post, or do you want to start with some "yo momma" jokes? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
