Consider converting your scripts to proper POSIX shell syntax rather than bash

Open piens1 opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Your scripts (/scripts) have a .bash extension which I find rather odd. Bash, while compatible with POSIX introduces many non-standard 'features'. Please consider revising your scripts to proper POSIX strict syntax to ensure compatibility across different systems (e.g. Alpine and OpenBSD ship with shells other than bash and many individuals replace bash with more frugal and secure shells). Your support of bash also results in enforcing it as standard which promotes obese and insecure software (bash has hundreds, if not thousands and upwards of registered bugs).
