Are you suggesting that interpreters don't parse their input?  No doubt
there are interpreters that handle tokens one at a time, but shells
typically don't work that way.

There are a lot of different ways to distinguish between languages like
sh/ksh/bash that are normally interpreted and languages like C that are
normally compiled to machine code:

- Is the language primarily designed for interactive command-line use?
- Is the language normally compiled to machine code?
- Is the language compiled by some kind of byte code that is then
  interpreted?  Is that byte code *sometimes* translated to machine
  code?
- Is foo treated by default as a string or as an identifier?
  (Treating it as a string is convenient for interactive use.)
- Does a syntax error on line 10 prevent lines 1-9 from being executed?

I don't think *any* of these distinctions are fundamental.

For example, a Perl or Python program/script is parsed and "compiled"
into some in-memory form before execution begins.  A syntax error
prevents the entire script from being executed.  In Bourne-line shells,
a syntax error won't be detected until execution reaches that line.
(Things like Perl's BEGIN and eval can complicate things.)

Shells also have to parse their input, though it's done a bit
differently.  Typically the entire script isn't parsed as a unit.

I use it both in shell scripting/programming and interactively.

And the entire construct needs to be processed before the shell can
begin to execute it.  Misspelling "done" prevents the whole thing from
running.
