I have to switch to bash first, and wonder days later, why I can't find it (obviously) in my fish history.

I mean, doesn’t the script have a hash bang pointing to the bash interpreter?

#!/usr/bin/bash

Or you can just run it like:

bash script.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash for compability. 😉

For example on my system bash is in /bin.

Right, of course. I already do that with Python scripts, but with bash old habits die hard, I guess. :)

I know, well the lazyness is strong in me. Copy and paste.

Huh. It’s the first thing I write in any script. It actually saves me time. What annoys me is a script that doesn’t have a hash bang. :)
