Well, I have had many comments such as "why munge with the Csh?"
"But I **USE** the csh, munge the sh instead!".

Just what I expected. Pesonally, i hate the csh, but you notice that
I haven't hacked it. Now all of you folk who use the csh know the
terror I go through when someone mentions hacking the sh. I don't
want to cahnge the behavior of any highly used command such as the
shell unless it is fully upward compatible (for a start, I also
do not advocate the grafting on of useless features to any program).
