Current shell 3

[ddrillich]

Good Day,

Is there a way to know which shell one uses? Meaning, I log in to certain system and would like to know what the shell is. Is it possible?

Regards,
Dan

echo $SHELL

I want to be good, is that not enough?

Issue this command at the command line and it should tell you what you're using "echo $0"

In our article, "Korn Shell Nuances", one of the topics we discuss is how to tell what your shell is:
