I also specifically looked in the section on aliases, and all it said was that the general lexical structure of .cshrc applies there as well, so I know it's possible to do it. That's all I was able to figure out after one hour of reading the man page over and over. >Another excellent >source of information is the O'Reilly Nutshell Handbook, UNIX in a Nutshell >(ISBN 1-56592-001-5, ~$10 US).

That's what my PC and the Net are for... :-) The book you mention sounds like a good one, but most books I've found to be useless and get outdated in a matter of just a couple months, and I have a shelf full of books on computer-related topics that I haven't touched in 5 years. They make nice nests for spiders, and that's about it. -- My web site starts at http://www.serv.net/~fewtch/index.html - lots of goodies for everyone, have a look if you have the time.
