/bin/tcsh IS in base, but /bin/csh IS /bin/tcsh (Hard linked). FreeBSD dropped its old csh for tcsh about seven years ago. V4.3, I think. % ls -l /bin/*csh -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 293060 May 23 20:43 /bin/csh -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 293060 May 23 20:43 /bin/tcsh So /bin/csh (or /bin/tcsh) gives you full command editing and completion capability and all the other interactive tcsh goodies. -- R.
