#! /bin/csh

I agree with Brian that if you're simply installing this application with no
requirement to maintain it, then no worries. If you end up maintaining it,
beware. C-shell superficially resembles bourne/korn shell, but actually
differs in some critical aspects. Sneaky little things that can bite you
when you least expect it. Originally c-shell was created to overcome some
deficiencies in bourne shell, but when bourne evolved into korn, in my
opinion that eliminated the need for c. Either way, have a little talk with
your vendor's developers about what the heck they are doing.

I have been working with Oracle on Unix - various platforms since Version
6.X.
For the first time a vendor has sent us an install that installs under the
C-shell.
Up until this point I have always worked on and installed under the korn
shell.

This introduces a different shell environment in our current environment.  I
find this really annoying.  However, I cannot find anything that stipulates
which shell environment to use.

-What is everyone else using out there?
-Do you think I should make an issue of this one?


Thanks,
Paula
