>Description:
Time(1)'s default output is inferior to the output from csh's time builtin command (less precision, etc.)  It would be nice to have a -c switch to time(1) that outputs the default csh format.  If one is feeling extra adventurous, one could also add a -f option that takes a format string similar to the csh time variable to use for formatting the output.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compare '/usr/bin/time echo foo' and 'tcsh -c time echo foo'.
