Shell Programming and Scripting
Automatic ftp job

Well I finally got the .netrc file to work. I guess the first time I did it I formatted the .netrc file wrong or something.
I think other shells are available in OS X but I don't know if they're already there or if I have to go find them and try to install them. I may be checking out other shells just for the sake of learning how to script.
:Update: It turns out that Mac OS X has a little bit of most everything. According to one user on Macaddicts message boards, Mac OS X has csh, tcsh, Bourne and bash. I tried out that script written for Bourne and it worked like a charm.
Thanks for the help. (again)

shells(4) File Formats shells(4) NAME
shells - shell database SYNOPSIS
/etc/shells DESCRIPTION
The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser- shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root. A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored. The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/ksh93, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh, /bin/sh, /bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/ksh93, /usr/bin/pfcsh, /usr/bin/pfksh, /usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh, and /usr/sfw/bin/zsh. /etc/shells overrides the default list. Invalid shells in /etc/shells could cause unexpected behavior, such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1). FILES
