You're not the only one - I've been using tcsh almost as long. I really like some features of zsh (multiline-editing?) and hate some features of tcsh (I _really_ want to say "2>/dev/null") but... I use the alias features of tcsh heavily, especially the "!*" construct, and don't want to give that up. Does zsh support command substitution in aliasing? -- Jonathan
