Along with the following, check if you don't have .tcshrc. If you have one, it can contain offensive lines that obscure the problem.

Is there a chance you typed literally

"source /sw/bin/init.csh"

instead of

source /sw/bin/init.csh

or perhaps

"source /sw/bin/init.csh

or

source /sw/bin/init.csh"

?

To make sure all is right, type

echo "source /sw/bin/init.csh" > ~/.cshrc

WARNING: this will overwrite anything and everything in your ~/.cshrc file, do this if you want to keep your current one safe:

mv ~/.cshrc ~/.cshrc_old

and then do echo "source /sw/bin/init.csh" > ~/.cshrc

I'm having trouble setting up the fink environment with xterm.app as outline in the "directions" for installing fink. I added the line: source /sw/bin/init.csh into my .cshrc file. I now open the xterm window and I get this:
Unmatched ".
[Tobias:~] herbieme%

as my prompt. I don't know what " Unmatched ". " means, and when I type in "fink -h" to see if fink is available to me xterm tells me "fink:Command not available"
If type in "source /sw/bin/init.csh" after my prompt, fink will work. So I think I have something screwed up with my shell scripts. I now hav X11 install and Fink, and that is all, and everything should be at its default setting, so how do I figure out what is going on?
