Which shells do the people use here?

Used to use zsh, until I found bash-completion:

zsh had some warts that always bugged me. bash with a good set of completion functions is much nicer.



tcsh


the only difference between tcsh and bash that i pick out regularly is setenv vs export for shell vars and the alias shell builtin- basically tcsh separates variables and value with whitespace while bash uses a pesky (to me) = for the assignment. Oh, don't forget that bash has file descriptors for redirecting STDERR and STDOUT, making it the choice for scripting.
