Bash is the GNU Project's shell. Bash is the Bourne Again SHell. Bash is
|
|
an sh-compatible shell that incorporates useful features from the Korn
|
|
shell (ksh) and C shell (csh). It is intended to conform to the IEEE
|
|
POSIX P1003.2/ISO 9945.2 Shell and Tools standard. It offers functional
|
|
improvements over sh for both programming and interactive use. In addition,
|
|
most sh scripts can be run by Bash without modification.
|
|
|
|
The improvements offered by Bash include:
|
|
|
|
- Command line editing
|
|
- Unlimited size command history
|
|
- Job Control
|
|
- Shell Functions and Aliases
|
|
- Indexed arrays of unlimited size
|
|
- Integer arithmetic in any base from two to sixty-four
