Hi, friendly question/plug: Can zsh run most scripts that "bash" runs? Is this capability as well as POSIX compatibility considered an important aspect of zsh? (POSIX seems a bit limited, so perhaps inter-shell compatibility is more important in actual practice and usage.) As I say, it's a "plug" as well as a question so the "plug" is that in general I'd like to be able to use zsh in place of "bash" as much as possible. :-)
zsh is excellent.
Thank You,
Greg McPherran
