----------------------------------
Yeah safe to assume bash, I think.

> There is some funkiness on Ubuntu when running example/bin/ shell scripts
> such as classify-newsgroups.sh. It has to do w/ the use of /bin/sh at the
> top you get odd syntax errors:
> {quote}
> ./classify-20newsgroups.sh: 35: Syntax error: "(" unexpected (expecting "fi")
> {quote}
> If you switch it to /bin/bash or invoke it as "bash classify-newsgroups.sh"
> then it all works.
> I assume we can make the assumption that bash exists everywhere this is going
> to run?
