Non portable shebang for bash #1149

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

#!/bin/bash is very bad idea.
In essence some platforms (like BSD or Solaris don't have bash in that place so 
this will cause issues. You instead should use
#!/usr/bin/env bash

Also Ubuntu has started a trend of avoiding bash since the standard shell 
(dash) is faster so it's better to use the more portable /bin/sh when possible.
