​Right. Basically we just want IBM to indicate that they approve of BASH so
that the hide bound corporate types in our company management will agree to
let us install it. Of course, at my current employer, I can install
anything that I want so long at it is zero cost. They neither know, nor
care, about such things. Mainly because I'm wise enough to not use it in
production. But, then, our application programmers are not UNIX literate.
And the others in Tech Support dislike UNIX because, as one of them said,
it is not the same as Windows (he was complaining about the / vs. \
directory separator at the time).​
