Hi Alex,
This is what I have in my .cshrc file:
if ($?tcsh) then # are we using the tcsh shell?
set autolist # list files on ambiguous filename completion
set autologout = 360 # 360 minutes idle logout
set prompt = "{%T}<%n@%m><%B%~%b>[%h] " # make prompt extra-nifty
set who = "%B%n%b %a %U%T%u %l %B%m%b"
# display format for log of user entry/exit from remote system
# To turn on, use "set watch = (1 any any)"
# ... where 1 is minute interval, any user, any terminal
if ($?savehist) unset savehist # don't keep .history file!
bindkey ^W backward-delete-word # bind ^W to delete last word
limit coredumpsize 0 # disallow memory dump files ("core")
if (`whoami` == "root") then
set prompt = "{%T}<%BROOT%b@%m><%B%~%b>[%h] " # You are root
endif
endif
Let's say you wanted to watch specific users instead of
everyone. Then you do this instaed of (1 any any):
set watch = (1 yermom any yerdad any yersister any)
