Which Shell Scripting is the BEST and WHY? - asitkumar - 04-20-2013
Which Shell Scripting is the BEST and WHY?
a. Bash Scripting
b. Windows PowerShell
c. C Shell
d. Z Shell
e. Windows Batch Scripting
f. Perl Scripting
(Please note that these all are for especially sysadmin scripting and that's why I didn't add others like Python, Lua, node.js, etc.)

Bash scripting because it's great for piping between programs on the Linux side of things to keep it simple.
At least that's my preference for small matters such as that where Python or Perl (or else) might not always be available.
Although as far as bash scripting goes, are you referring directly to interactive bash or scripted bash?
In either case, Bash is the best for system administration as far as I'm concerned in my not so humble opinion.

Perl scripting.
I'm a batch scripter, and I can't code in Perl, so far, but it's the best in that list for me.

Well, I have good experience with bash, so I'll go with that

Eh, Perl, there's many different views on that one. Powershell is f*ckin amazing though. I'm a powershell guy
You'll see some of my powershell stuff around the forum I think.
