System is base/stable/9, r245697. tcsh version is 6.18.01:
$ sudo -i
root@icarus:~ # sfdjsdj
sfdjsdj: Command not found.
root@icarus:~ # cd ~root
root@icarus:~ # dsjfdsfdsf
dsjfdsfdsf: Command not found.
root@icarus:~ # cd ~jdc
root@icarus:~jdc # sdjfdjkfjdsk
sdjfdjkfjdsk: Command not found.
root@icarus:/home/jdc # <---- notice sudden prompt change
root@icarus:/home/jdc # cd ~root
root@icarus:~ # dsfjjdskdfs
dsfjjdskdfs: Command not found.
root@icarus:~ # logout
This only happens when an invalid command is issued (e.g. had I used
"ls" instead of "blah" the prompt would not have changed).
$prompt is the standard /root/.cshrc (r244005) value:
set prompt = "%N@%m:%~ %# "
I cannot reproduce this problem on Debian 6.0.1 with tcsh 6.17.02:
$ ssh jdc@192.168.1.161
Linux debian 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP Sun Sep 23 09:49:36 UTC 2012 i686

jdc@debian:~$ sudo -i
root@debian:~# /bin/tcsh
debian:~# set prompt = "%N@%m:%~ %# "
root@debian:~ # sdfsdf
sdfsdf: Command not found.
root@debian:~ # cd ~jdc
root@debian:~jdc # sdfssgsgjsj
sdfssgsgjsj: Command not found.
root@debian:~jdc # exit
root@debian:~# logout
The number of changes between 6.17.02 and 6.18.01 seem quite large
(looking at src/contrib/tcsh/Fixes).
Does anyone have a non-FreeBSD system with tcsh 6.18.01 available
to determine if this is a FreeBSD-centric issue or an actual issue with
tcsh that needs to be reported upstream?
Thanks.
