In conf/160689 (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=160689) there has been some discussion about changing the default cshrc file. I'd like to commit something like the following based on Chris's patch at the end of the thread. This post is an attempt to open the change to wider discussion. commit dbe6cb730686dd53af7d06cc9b69b60e6e55549c diff --git a/etc/root/dot.cshrc b/etc/root/dot.cshrc --- a/etc/root/dot.cshrc +++ b/etc/root/dot.cshrc @@ -7,9 +7,10 @@ alias h history 25 alias j jobs -l -alias la ls -a +alias la ls -aF alias lf ls -FA -alias ll ls -lA +alias ll ls -lAF +alias ls ls -F # A righteous umask umask 22 @@ -17,19 +18,24 @@ umask 22 set path = (/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin $HOME/bin) setenv EDITOR vi -setenv PAGER more +setenv PAGER less setenv BLOCKSIZE K if ($?prompt) then # An interactive shell -- set some stuff up set prompt = "`/bin/hostname -s`# " set filec - set history = 100 - set savehist = 100 + set history = 10000 + set savehist = 10000 + set autolist + # Use history to aid expansion + set autoexpand set mail = (/var/mail/$USER) if ( $?tcsh ) then bindkey "^W" backward-delete-word bindkey -k up history-search-backward bindkey -k down history-search-forward endif + set prompt = "[%n@%m]%c04%# " + set promptchars = "%#" endif -- Eitan Adler
