POSIX-compliant shell
The Debian Almquist Shell (dash) is a lightweight POSIX-compliant shell derived from ash.
It can be usefully installed as /bin/sh (because it executes scripts faster than bash), or as the default shell for the superuser. It depends on fewer libraries than bash, and is therefore less likely to be affected by an upgrade problem or a disk failure. It is also useful for checking the POSIX compliance of scripts.
