I have been using ‘bash’ since the time I have been using Unix- Linux/Solaris. Now, I am interested to know what do shells like ‘ksh’,’zsh’ offer better? What do ‘geeks’ use?

I’m partial to zsh (it’s like a blend of ksh and bash). The guide has a nice overview of its features. This page has a nice chart showing the availability of different features in different shells.
