   Every Linux and macOS shell script programmer is a retrocomputing practitioner because shell script has been forbidden from changing for 40 years

     @misty I once had to maintain a single shell script that needed to run on Ubuntu Linux, a commercial embedded Linux, Solaris, SunOS (yes, both), AIX, and HP-UX.

     The same script. No changes between OSes.

     I have SCARS
