As mentioned in this eMail thread, getting bash ported will open the door to

Can't we get the support guys @amiga.com to do some serieous effort to get
bash ported? Or, if someone @amiga.com can give us an update or status of
bash? Alternativley send some serieous help to Aaron as he was on the right
track.

that I have attempted to port but got bogged down in the details of trying
