Tue 21 Jan 2020 04:29:58 PM UTC, comment #1: I just wanted to add that it is possible to run Bash in a POSIX-mode, either by running it with `--posix' or including `set -o posix' in the script. For more, see the Bash POSIX mode in its manual. |

These high-level scripts must not assume GNU Bash. Currently they do (by starting with the `!#/bin/bash' hashbang) because I haven't had time to test them on a POSIX-only shell. But we should find a way to test the template in a POSIX-only shell and remove all the Bash features.

Corresponding source code
This task has been effectively completed by just changing the hashbangs of these two scripts! From now on, if we confront errors on systems that don't use Bash, we'll treat them as bugs and will fix them.
The change has been pushed to the main repository.
