So you get the idea, try executing it from another shell ...

Code:
$ ksh -c 'print -l **/*(/)'  
ksh: print: -l: unknown option
$ ksh93 -c 'print -l **/*(/)'
/var/opt/ast/bin/ksh[1]: print: -l: unknown option
Usage: print [-enprsv] [-f format] [-u fd] [string ...]
$ zsh -c 'print -l **/*(/)' 
backup
dir1
$ bash -c 'print -l **/*(/)' 
bash: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
bash: -c: line 0: `print -l **/*(/)'
$ dash -c 'print -l **/*(/)'
zsh: correct 'dash' to 'ash' [nyae]? y
Syntax error: "(" unexpected
$ sh -c 'print -l **/*(/)' 
sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
sh: -c: line 0: `print -l **/*(/)'
$ csh -c 'print -l **/*(/)'
Badly placed ()'s.
$ tcsh -c 'print -l **/*(/)'
Badly placed ()'s.
$ pdksh -c 'print -l **/*(/)'
pdksh: print: -l: unknown option

The Shebang!

Hi, I always thought that #!/usr/bin/ksh means that the script would be executed in korn shell i.e. when we'll execute the script with this line as the very first line then the shell spawns a korn shell (in this case as we are using #!/usr/bin/ksh ) and the script gets executed.

Scripts without shebang

I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning . Does this mean that it will run on any shell ? Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)

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).
