When i talk about my "bash" scripts, i mean sh. I assume this is the same forgp (tbh, i tend to use AWK over bash in 80% of cases, but i call it from bash anyway, and still call it bash scripting :/)

This makes me sad and sounds very naive. AWK is a fantastic language on its own and should be called out when used as such.

I'll make you sadder: Even when I call my own AWK modules I put hours in, I still call that a bash script.

Yep I'm the same. I just call it bash. I think old habits die hard.
