	Hum, well we here at CalPoly took the 4.3BSD csh off the
	distro tape and compiled, seems to work fine.  
	We did this to add Ohio-States patches that make it
	'tcsh' ( Which is a much improved version then Pyramid's ).

>Anyone know of any functionality in the 4.3BSD csh that isn't in tcsh?

	That depends what 'tcsh' you are talking about.  I for
	one am hook on the tcsh from Ohio-State.  The two big 
	reason are: command line editing ( emacs style ) and improved 
	command line history.  Other then that it is pretty much
	csh.
