Hello All,
We are a University based IC design group who use standard IC design tools (Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor etc). We are currently migrating from Solaris to Linux. As a result of the fact that we are migrating from Solaris and also because of group members' previous experience, we have many users who have no bash-shell experience - their experience is mostly C shell or TC Shell. We are trying to decide whether to stick with the Linux standard bash-shell or use C-shell (or TC Shell) as the user shell. My instinct is to use bash as it is the standard Linux shell and will be the shell used for lots of examples etc. However, I would be interested to find out the recommendations of other board users in terms of factors to consider, experiences with the different shells for this type of scenario etc.
Many thanks,
John.
