1 year ago I'll be honest, part of that was because macOS has really crusty old versions for bash/sh, and zsh is the only thing that's both recent and wouldn't have multiple versions on the filesystem. And I wasn't sure if the if [ ! -f whatever ]; then lines would hit that crustiness. idk though, when I tracked down the byacc version from 1995 the cogscripts used, I definitely hit some issues with if statements.
It does seem like everything works with #!/bin/sh though so, ehh. Fixed.

It took me longer than it should to have figured this out. When I was trying to run your build compile scripts on fedora linux, it kept saying Script error, "cannot execute: required file not found." My first thought is that these were in a dos format and not a unix format, but converting it did nothing. Then i finally looked into the script and saw that the shebang said #!/bin/zsh. Now I'm a proponent of zsh as much as the next person, but it's really not the standard anywhere, nor is it necessary. A generic /bin/sh will work now matter what shell is being used.
