Definitely s/tcsh/bash/g is even more obvious than s/cvs/svn/g ;-)
But for those of us that find even {ba,z,k}sh unsatisfactory, I highly recommend trying the Friendly Interactive SHell <http://fishshell.org/>. It fixes many things like quoting, innovates in configuration and has interactive syntax-higlighted multiline-editing completing-on-steroids prompt. I do have to warn that it is still evolving, not perfectly stable, and has performance problems. So you might not want it as your login shell yet, but it's definitely worth checking out. See http://fishshell.org/wiki/moin.cgi/BashToFish for some highlights and a quick start. -- Beni Cherniavsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (I read email only on weekends) Joyce hangs up an African mask and says "It cheers up the room."
