Most of the points made in the FAQ about scripting large `applications' with csh ring a bell for me. Now, having said that, /bin/sh is nice for small to medium-sized scripts, but there is a certain point where even sh(1) becomes annoying. Do you have any _particular_ parts of the csh-whynot article that you would like to discuss, or this is a free for all flame? :) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
