Hello,
  I'm having problem with tcsh/ksh interaction:
tcsh allows an environment variable to contain a hyphen in its name, so the
following would work in tcsh:

setenv a-b foo

However when starting ksh from tcsh such a variable is not visible in ksh's
environment and it is not passed on when e.g. starting another tcsh instance
from ksh.

My question is: shouldn't be such variables tolerated in the environment?

Thanks in advance for the answer.
