Also did you type "rehash" after installing the new package and before trying to run it? Logout/login will produce the same effect. /bin/csh caches the names of executable programs found in $path. If you add a new executable somewhere csh doesn't know it until you tell it to "rehash" its database/cache. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
