A colon ":" is a modifier in the tcsh for variables.
For instance:
set f=file.c
echo $f:r
--> output: file [note the missing ".c", only root name]

Not quite, see the section for "eval" in the csh man page. The idea
is to use
eval to re-evaluate the variable after the name substitution.
Here is a cleaner version of the concept:

Glad to hear it. Just noting that none of the discussion I provide
