Why would your login shell need to be fully POSIX compatible?
They warn about it on their home page, so I assumed using it could bust your system. My bad.
I think they also had harsher wording about this in the past but I might be misremembering...
Scripts who use
#!/bin/sh
are independent of your login shell.What does any of that have to do with your login shell?
