    limit core 1.0e99                       # no limit in this csh
    set x1=23 ; echo ${x1}                  # variable syntax - Yes
    if ( { date >/dev/null } ) echo ha ha   # redirection ignored - Yes
    eval "who|tr 'e' 'x'"                   # pipe ignored - Yes
    date | if 1 echo hi ; jobs              # spurious job id - Yes
    setenv USER 'xxx*yyy' ; /bin/csh        # gives (null pointer): No match
    date ; exit ; date ; date ; date        # four dates print - Yes
    setenv xxx "XXX" ; set yyy "YYY" ; echo $#xxx $#yyy   # XXX 1 - Yes
   date | /bin/echo `cat` ; echo never see me            # this one got fixed

This C-shell differs from the 4.2 shell also in that it has twenex-style
command and filename completion.
