Here is the difference between tcsh and ch shell. Tcsh shell is C-like Shell, Ch shell is C-compatible shell. Note that Ch is C/C++ interpreter, it supports C99 and C++ class. All Win32, GTK, OpenGL, ODBC applications can run in Ch without compilation. There are many C/C++ users who may sometimes write some shell scripts for quick job. Using C-compatible shell can take advantage of their C/C++ skills without learning a different language. BTW, I am not sure what you mean that win32 is supported by tcsh. Does gnuwin32 run independant of any shells?
