This section applies only on UNIX and UNIX-based systems, including Mac OS X.
By default, the Shell tool runs the UNIX command shell known as bash
. If you would rather use a different shell (such as csh
, tcsh
, ksh
, etc.), or if you do not have bash
available on your UNIX system, then change the value of the variable editor:*shell-shell*
, which has the value nil
by default. This means that the Shell tool will use the value of the variable ESHELL
or SHELL
if set, or one of "/bin/sh" (system V) and "/bin/csh" (otherwise).
