Swap out the current shell for something useful #151

Been trying to love this, but half the commands I write and test in a normal bash shell don't translate to this, since it uses /bin/sh. This means even your standard awk, find, tar, curl etc. function differently or are missing a bunch of stuff. Very frustrating!

Other than that, its awesome, thank you!

I think you should be able to switch to any shell by setting the SHELL env variable.

Make sure to "Save to crontab" once you add the env variable.
