This is in the same vein as the "emacs vs vim" argument.
True, people persist with Bash and vim, but in the latter case it
appears to be because they actually like it :-O
Most people use Bash because it is the default and they have never tried
anything else - just like the situation with most computer users and
Windows.
I'd been lectured on the wonders of zsh in the past, but it was only when
I had to learn to use it (I wrote a comparative review of shells) that I
realised what it offered over Bash as an interactive shell.
I tried it, for exactly 10 seconds. My home/end keys didn't work. This
gave me the impression of an unfinished project. Why on earth would
anyone release a program after 1990 that doesn't know the home/end keys? :-/
