But I'd suggest bash instead. Ref. "C Shell Programming Considered Harmful" by Tom Christiansen (47.02 Unix Power Tools, 'coz I can't find the original). It's not just scripting that tcsh is crippled in -- it's just general command line stuff. Ick.

Consider trying bash (the shell of choice for most Linux distribs) or tcsh, all of which are available in the /usr/ports/shells directory.
Ah! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Koszonom szepen!!!
I got tcsh, and it is soooooooo much better!!!
Caution: As many have said here already, don't change the root shell to anything other from sh or csh because that's a really bad idea.
Why is it a bad idea?
I hope it helps.
Yes, it did. Thanks again!
