Ack. Well, it doesn't look like it does. I have bash as my default shell, and that is what it appears to use (the bash at /bin/bash, not the bash at /bin/sh). For safeties sake, it may be best to execute "/bin/sh" first.

It appears that it uses whatever you have you user shell set as. Put this in a Window Open even with a StaticText1 on the Window:

        Dim sh As New Shell

        sh.Mode = 0
        sh.Execute "env | grep SHELL"
        App.DoEvents ' tee hee hee
        StaticText1.Text = sh.Result

and you can find out for yourself.

Brady's comment might be a good one if you expect a particular shell language.
