1 commonplace

This is where my commitment to Org Mode begins. Re-orgainizing the commonplace book. And markdown is being replaced by OrgMode with the HTML export feature.

Which brings up a terrific question: what is the threshhold of turning things over to a "server", someone or some process not of your making?

This question on stack exchange:

Is there a way to designate which shell to use depending on the user?

demonstrates the folly of our shell training. The poster is now aware there are different shells with different syntaxes. Since I don't know zsh at all (why anything but bash), but the important question should be "as a ?sh programmer, how can i write a script useful to both bash and zsh users?"

While four responders had marked the post as "off-topic", I'm wondering what their judgement was based on. I gave the post an up-tick to restore the over/under to zero. The user's post (OP – for Original Post[er]) was in good faith, indicating his self-trained contact with unix.

After re-reading the answers, Charles Duffy shares my view, and posts a more complete solution to the post. At this point the OP hasn't said much about the nature of the users.

My own experience, while teaching shell at Fidessa, noted our use of csh, which I would never do any actual programming in, but knew how to accomdate if I were going to interace with a script of my own. unixshell
