I have the following 4 lines in my .cshrc file. This puts the directory, 
history, and universe in my prompt. It also gives a directory listing 
whenever you change directories. "c" is used instead of "cd" to change 
directories. The directory is not shown in the prompt until the "c" command
is executed. I execute "c" in my .login file.


a u universe
set prompt =\
"`u` (\!)--> "
a c 'cd \!*; set prompt="`u`  $cwd ( \! )--> " ; echo ; ls -F; echo ;'

Hope this helps!!!!`
