But if you don't have a .tcshrc, then .cshrc works just fine--the system doesn't set one up by default, so you only get a .tcshrc if you, or some third-party application, create one.
OK
I originally told people in the FAQ to edit .tcshrc . The problem is partly historical: because of the initial choice, there are many references to .cshrc in the documentation, both online and internal; it's much easier to stick with .cshrc as the "standerd" place to set your fink environment, and then source it within .tcshrc if needed.
OK, nevertheless dealing with this in the installation pages, and telling people what to do if they have a .tcshrc would avoid beginners to be stuck by this, which according to the archive of the list, and my experience of discussions on French Mac newsgroups, happens from time to time.
Thanks,
