Hi Tim. What errors do you get if you use sh instead of bash? On Debian systems sh should be a symbolic link to dash. On Debian dash is preferred for system shell scripts (perhaps even required now) and I use it for my personal scripts unless there is some need to use bash instead. I still use bash for my login shell.
I've used shellcheck to point me in the right direction and figure that if dash runs the script without errors then it's close enough to POSIX compatible for my needs. I don't anticipate my scripts needing to run on some ancient Unix shell. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
