So, this is a work thing, and work is kinda weird about what you can and cannot use. We have to use csh. We are also using clearcase, with a gui from the 1980's. I have worked on military classified projects, and my current company is the strictest place I've ever worked at. And we do consumer parts.
Anyway, I talked with someone who is like quasi IT for our group He couldnt figure it out. So he filed a ticket, and it has gone to our actual IT group, which is all based in europe. Apparently having IT people in the same building you work in is 'inefficient' I am doing a workaround for now. If I ever find out what the issue is, I'll let folks know. I will say that I didnt know anything about cshell scriots until now, and boy I wish I hadnt. I would have madd the whold scrit perl, but I am trying to boot something onto an existing project.
