Implementation
This is an implementation of UNIX Shell.

You may find other implementations of this language at Category:UNIX Shell Implementations.

The Bourne Shell is a UNIX shell upon which many shells are based; notably ksh and bash. (The other major tree of UNIX shells descend from csh)

A Bourne Shell script begins like this:

#!/bin/sh

This specifies which binary to use to interpret the script.
