Probably 99.99% of all shell scripts that I see are still Bourne scripts or very close to it. The bash shell is SO MUCH more powerful than Bourne, but it gets used in such a clumsy and trivial manner that wastes far too many processes and far too many cycles. And yes, I have submitted patches when the abuse was truly egregious, but such updates are universally ignored as there is no actual error to point to. Sigh... -- David N.
