Thank you... I'll try that syntax and see what the results are. Seems to me I did and it didn't work, but it looks like it did in the example below. A shell script would probably have been the best solution, but the more I can put in one file, the less I have to remember to back up if I decide to reinstall my system (which I've been doing a lot as a newbie learning BSD and trying to find the best system configuration for my purposes). If I can just back up .cshrc and not have to remember to back up a whole other complete directory, all the better. The more customizations I make to the system, the more difficult it becomes should I ever have to re-install it, so I like to keep customizations few and far between, and in specific files that I can easily remember the names and locations of.
