Hi everyone,
Just a brief note: the indentation style for `sh' scripts
is "by analogy" with the style for C.
Some examples:
	#-------------------------------------------------------------------#
	if foo; then
		...
	else
		...
	fi
	#-------------------------------------------------------------------#
	if	this_very_long_command with lots of arguments &&
		that_very_long_command with lots of arguments &&
		some_other_command
	then
		...
	fi
	#-------------------------------------------------------------------#
	for var in ...; do
		...
	done
	#-------------------------------------------------------------------#
