Tips & Tricks:
Customizable Linux Shell Options:
Everything in Linux is customizable including the shell. Most users probably utilize whatever shell (likely Bash) that comes with their distro by default. However, there are some powerful shell options out there to try out.
Zsh – designed to be interactive and it incorporates many features of other Unix/GNU Linux shells such as bash, tcsh and ksh.
Tcsh – is enhanced C shell, it can be used as a interactive login shell and shell script command processor.
Fish – “friendly interactive shell” and was authored in 2005. It was intended to be fully interactive and user friendly.
