Title: shell scripting, which shell use tc?
Post by: vinnie on March 02, 2011, 11:28:47 AM

I wanted to learn some shell scripting and I went looking for tutorials, but for which shell should I look for the guides?
What uses the default tc?

Hi vinnie
I believe the busybox version is the bourne shell (Not bourne again).
This link has some pretty good info. http://steve-parker.org/sh/sh.shtml.
You'll find a lot of the TC scripts start with  #!/bin/sh  which is a link to
the shell interpreter.

I agree, search for "bourne shell", not the bash monstrosity.
