Please, pretty please with sugar on top, let's not use bash, and let's educate
our users not to use bash either.
I'm not sure why bash is so bad, other than the use of bashisms, as a
basic shell, it works alright for me.
Back to the subject at hand:
exec tcsh -l
set autolist
set correct=cmd
set notify
set prompt="[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "
and if you want that stored permanently, put it in ~/.cshrc, like so:
if ($?tcsh) then
if ($?WINDOW) then
set prompt="[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "
else
set prompt="[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "
endif
set notify correct=cmd autolist
endif
The man page on `tcsh` offers a wealth of information... and let's just say
tcsh is light years ahead as far as interactive usage goes... to put it
mildly...
I appreciate this particular tip though. The first thing I noticed
after I tried this out was how much "faster" tcsh feels than bash. It
must be psychological, but I would swear it is different somehow.
I always wanted to try tcsh out, now I will :)
