as pointed out, the nexts own csh is really a CMU-shell that supports
almost all tcsh amenities.

just put:

set editmode=emacs

in your .cshrc
and put

bind-to-key FilenameExpansion "\^I"

in a file called .bindings (used to store your personal key-bindings
for the CMU-shell; do man csh on a next for more info and the full
list of bindings---they have most emacs functions)
and away you go! I don't use tcsh anymore at all.
