Bash is the shell, or command language interpreter, that will appear in the GNU operating system.
Bash is an sh-compatible shell that incorporates useful features from the Korn shell (ksh) and C shell (csh). Bash is intended to conform to the IEEE POSIX P1003.2/ISO 9945.2 Shell and Tools standard.
It offers functional improvements over sh for both programming and interactive use. In addition, most sh scripts can be run by Bash without modification.
Here are some key features of "Bash":
Command line editing
Unlimited size command history
Job Control
Shell Functions and Aliases
Indexed arrays of unlimited size
