Hello David, 

Unfortunately, both agree. 
There are plenty of other ideas though, and I will go through them all.


XQuartz xterm : 
Fri 9:37 [bjk] pwd
/Users/bjk
Fri 9:37 [bjk] id
uid=501(bjk) ...
Fri 9:37 [bjk] echo $0
tcsh
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo $SHELL
/bin/tcsh
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo ~
/Users/bjk
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo $HOME
/Users/bjk

Terminal : 
Fri 9:37 [bjk] pwd
/Users/bjk
Fri 9:38 [bjk] id
uid=501(bjk) 
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo $0
-tcsh
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo $SHELL
/bin/tcsh
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo ~
/Users/bjk
Fri 9:38 [bjk] echo $HOME
/Users/bjk
Fri 9:38 [bjk] 


Best,
Ben
