          <(...) aka process substitution is bash syntax, and you're executing this in sh (note that your error starts with -sh). It seems your login shell is sh, not bash, for some reason. The simplest way here would be to switch to bash, and then run the command:



          $ bash
          
$ bash <( curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EpicCrypto/Epic-MN-Install/master/install.sh )


          Ask your system admin how to change your login shell to bash.

          Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

          Image
          up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title.
