Guess most here use Bash or zsh, but ... well, let's make it official.

Eshell. :)

But yes, default shell is Zsh and that is what I go back to when I need more powah (i.e.: colors!).

Well yes, eshell I had to opt out because it is not in the repos as standalone shell. Sorry :)

I use mksh as my login shell ( sometimes interactively ), bash for interactive-use and scripting most of the time, dash when I need to make or check some sh scripts and there is ash from busybox which I haven't messed with that much.

zsh

Have we not had this poll before? Dejavu (the sensation, not the font) I guess.

#SHELLSHOCK made me reconsider using bash and zsh as I had done. I think OpenBSD's version of the public domain korn shell is a nice balance of beard and bloat. It's in Debian as oksh I think. I've also been investigating rc from Plan 9, it seems similarly useful if strange.

Oh, I voted but hadn't commented...

Bash (my vote) in Linux and Mac OSX, ksh in OpenBSD, and rc in 9front.

Still meaning to try zsh, though haven't yet.
