My problem with #!/bin/bash and #!/bin/sh is solved. Actually it did not
concerned wich shell is used to run the script but the syntax
highlighting. I have no problem about wich shell is used to run the
script.

My question about which shell is used between bash and zsh concerns
:!shell_cmd and :sh.
In the first case
I would like like that :!shell_cmd is runed with bash.
(In fact the main reason is that sometimes I write things like
:!action="xpdf -option"; ...; $action file
and by default zsh does not split $action in 2 strings, there's an
option but it needs one more command).

And for :sh, as it's a classical interactive shell, I would prefer zsh.

This seems to work. But I loose the possibility of running interactive
bash if I want. Interesting however.
