Re: How well supported is csh/tcsh?

Sorry, I don't get what you mean


Some packages come with install scripts. I guess running them is independant of the shell you choose so they just work.
Other than that there are just a few environment variables that effect things. MAKE_MODE springs to mind. It gets set /etc/profile but also seems to be done in /etc/csh.login - so that one is OK. Are there others?
