-Again SHell, an interactive shell with Bourne shell syntax (/bin/sh);
+This is GNU Bash, version 3.0. Bash is the GNU Project's Bourne
+Again SHell, a complete implementation of the POSIX.2 shell spec,
but also with interactive command line editing, job control on
-architectures that support it, Csh-like history features and brace
-expansion, and a slew of other stuff. For more information on the
-features of Bash that are new to this type of shell, see the file
-`documentation/features.texi'. There is also a processed DVI file
-there, as well as a large man page.
