Solaris included /bin/ksh as part of the core distribution (ksh88 was a part of the SVr4 specification) and so many scripts were written with #!/bin/ksh at

If you like to check what the Bourne Shell did support in the late 1980s, I recommend you to fetch recent Schily tools from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/ compile and install and test "osh". This is the SVr4 Bourne Shell, so you need to take into account what has been added with Svr4: - multibyte character support. In the 1980s, the Bourne Shell was just 8-bit clean. - job-control. If you do not call "jsh", or if you...

...d provided sh, mv, tar, ifconfig and mount as statib binaries in "/sbin". Since Solaris 10 we know better and there is no static binary anymore. BTW: the real Bourne Shell is now 100% portable and enhanced since a longer time. If you like to test the real Bourne Shell, check the latest schilytools: https://sourceforge.net/projects/schilytools/files/ The Bourne Shell is also much faster than bash.

It was the mid/late-90s, but I seem to recall Bourne being the default shell, although sh/ksh/csh were all available with a typical install.

I have a question that has been puzzling me for some time ... what is the reason RedHat chose to go with btrfs rather than working with the ZFS-on-Linux folks (now OpenZFS)? Is it a licensing issue, political, etc? Although btrfs is making progress, ZFS is far more mature, has a few more stable features (especially Raid-z3) and has worked flawlessly for me on CentOS-6 and Scientific Linux-6.

I'm reasonably certain that a script with no shebang will run with /bin/sh. I interpret your statement to mean that if a user is using ksh and enters the path to such a script, it would also run in ksh. That would only be true if you
