My understanding was this: If you specify 'sh foo.sh' at the shell, the script will be run in a /bin/sh shell, _unless_ you override the shell _in_ the script. Ie, 'sh foo.sh' containing '#!/bin/sh' being redundant, but 'zsh foo.sh' containing '#!/bin/sh' would execute using zsh. -- Glen Barber _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
