Hi,
I miss Bash history over dash. However, I suppose Raspbian comes with Dash for some reason and I wanted to know if there's any performance impact or something I should be aware, or if it's even possible to use Bash to have history functionality.
I really hate typing stuff 3 times because I have to change 1 character.
Re: Dash vs Bash question
Huh? Raspbian uses Bash as its interactive shell. As the regular user, type echo $SHELL, and it will be Bash.
Debian uses Dash as the default non-interactive shell. As they note “It is not intended to be used interactively by a user, for example, in a terminal emulator, but rather focuses on speed and compatibility with standards. Therefore, many interactive features are not present in Dash, making it faster and more memory efficient than Bash. ”

Re: Dash vs Bash question
Yes, but no-one's going to have that as an interactive shell by default.
