Hello Peter

Actually, the csh thing shouldn't be done untill we get far enough with the

or interpreter at this point.
The reason why i asked people to investigate tcsh & csh is because we had
older versions available, if it now seems that fixing these would be more
work then it should be, then i suggest we freeze this untill we get to a
point where we have a need for it.

If you
don't get what I'm hinting at here, I'm actually suggesting
writing a shell from scratch, AND making it portable :-P
Not a bad idea, but I think we should focus on writing an intepreter
first.
(Ok, what I really mean is that we should not spend any time now on
handling command completion, history management etc. - an intepreter
can probably work as a shell with no command-line features)
