[ Please CC me since I'm not subscribed to questions right now ] Dear all: I seem to be suffering some strange problems and I need some pointers to tell me where to look for solutions. In my personal workstation something is broken. My local .cshrc is not read, instead, the one in /etc/csh.cshrc is read and executed. I have a similar machine set up, without the symptoms but I don't happen to see where the failure is located. Permissions on both machines are similar: -rw-r--r-- I also have some problems with my terminal setup, since mutt (ncurses based email agent) is refusing to show nothing but a mono (B&W) display. I can't explain why, but I have a strong feeling that both problems are related somehow. For this particular problem: TERM is xterm TERMCAP is not defined (although I'm not sure I need this) I can switch to TERM = xterm-color or linux to get some color display, but definitely with weird results (ie not the right choice) One of my suspects is mutt-devel which I installed from ports. But the problem with the local .cshrc is older ... I would appreciate any ideas about how to find the culprit. Is there any place where I could override reading of local .cshrc?
