Bash
Wikipedia:Bash is a Unix shell written for the GNU Project. The name of the actual executable is bash. Its name is an acronym for Bourne-again shell, a pun ('Bourne again' / 'born again') on the name of the Bourne shell (sh), an early and important Unix shell written by Stephen Bourne.
Almost all Linux distributions use Bash as the base "shell" atop which startup scripts are expected to run.
