Picking a random person to reply to.

There are a lot of good suggestions in this thread, but can we please
remember a few things:

- Users can always add their own ~/.cshrc
- Many users will get annoyed by what is someone else's amazing setup

The changes I proposed were designed to add value while continuing to
be non-annoying to the vast majority of users. I'd like feedback about
the specific patch I proposed. We can also create a wiki page for
more awesome tcsh examples.

For the record this is the current version of the patch I'd like to
commit: Note that it slightly changed from the original (I removed the
duplicate prompt setup and reorganized where the edits are made to
make the diff look nicer).
