I once tried to write a shell in Ruby as a toy project in my
~/Programming/Ruby directory but got bored...
If it had not all ready been largely done in C, Perl, Lisp, and KornShell
versions I'd probably work on a shell and posix oriented userland for fun.

The scripts i write are _bourne_ shell scripts, so they should generally work
on almost any system with a compliant shell as long as all of the used
programs are installed. I *never* write BASH scripts or use GNU extensions....
The point is it's a shell for interacting with the computer! It just happens
to be scriptable, which can be used to create very useful tools. It's not
really meant to be a full programming language so much as it is there to
enable you to build useful utilities without being a Master Coder.
The Bourne Again and Korn Shells add a lot of things to shell scripting, Many
Unix utilities have been rewritten as Korn Shell scripts and it even can be
made to provide some interfaces for GUI work. ksh93 may as well be a complete
_programming language_ unlike POSIX Compatible Bourne shell scripts

Personally I think perl scripts are better then sh but there are some
applications on most Unix systems that are to good not to reuse for some
tasks. If you need to script the operating system, I would say go for the
highest level of shell script you can (e.g. ksh93, ksh88, bourne, bash or
powershell, cmd, command e.t.c.). If your wanting to port it between OS
families, time for a _true_ and complete programming language meant for
Programming.
Perl is present on almost any Unix like system these days, *BSD and Linux/GNU
systems generally include them in the base, Mac OS X might I don't know:
Windows is the last bastard not in the heap !!! So it would be a good choice
as fewer systems would require it installed.
I think the Perl Shells (psh) last release was 21 Jul 2007 on CPAN. I'm a zsh
man but I used to collect different shells, languages, terminal emulators,
window managers, and text editors :-)
I'm very tempted to install Ruby on my server because I enjoy working in Ruby.
The only problem is when the Public Domain ksh and Perl pre-installed it's
hard to warrant it. And my administration-side tasks don't really require a
new tool, even if it would be my favorite :'(
