Came across the fish shell a while ago and so far I like it. I find it
easier to use than bash for scripting. Just wondering if anyone else on
the list has looked at/used it, and if so what are their thoughts.
I have now made this my default shell, but bash is still there and
available of course. I did look as the z shell, but just could not get
on with it. Probably my fault.
One thing I particularly like about fish is that working with floating
point numbers is built in. Bash works with integers only unless you
bring in bc or calc.
Just wondering,
Neil
