Unless you want something with interactive features and want something in the base, I really don't see much of a reason to choose tcsh. It can make a nice tuner control script using hotkeys and ect, but not much else. Tcsh if you ever try scripting in it will become a PITA with the lack of functions and a few other things. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
