Re: How does one change the default shell?

I use pdksh as my login shell - I have been using the Korn shell (thanks
Dave!) since 1984 or so, so it is what I am used to and has features I
haven't been able to find in bash - at least not yet.  So to expedite
script writing, I use the ksh language and features  Every time that I
write a script, I have to remember to put in the shebang line
(#!/bin/pdksh) or half the time my scripts won't work.

By the way, please don't commandeer threads. Start a new thread for a new topic.
