No I don't want to have sh as my shell or change the default shell.
I am just writing a script to build packages from ports on a new install.
As bash is not available but sh was I'll use that to script into.

Now when I was writing the script syntax that should have been a Ok in 
sh it was/is failing.
After some head scratching I found that maybe I wasn't really using or 
in a bourne shell ie /bin/sh.
That made me think that even though I have #!/bin/sh at the top of the 
script some how I wasn't really getting sh but csh.

So here is what I tried.
Power on console ( boot computer )
Login in as root
/bin/sh

set    #  to show environment etc
WTF SHELL says I am in csh????

It should say SHELL=/bin/sh

Hence my question here as to what is going on.
