.cshrc is *a* shell config file. To be more precise it is the file that csh/tcsh (usually) reads in when started. (For details on exactly what files is read at startup by this shell read the csh(1) manpage.) Other shells read other files. (sh looks at .profile, zsh uses zshenv/zlogin/zshrc, etc.) Read the manpage for each shell to find out all the messy details. > I created a new user and put a .cshrc in his home directory but > nothing happens ?
