Thanks for the input gentlemen, Interesting to that the question was posted by G(rant) and then answered by G(ary), G(arrett) and G(iorgos)! (what are the odds!). Anywho, I am busily converting the script to perl as per the suggestions. I use tcsh rarely, had I of known the quirks I woul shave done it in perl from the beguining. As for Garrett's case method, it didnt work. Created a "case: Too many arguments." error. Perhaps because it itself is nested in a 'foreach' statement. Thanks again guys, -Grant ----- Original Message ----- From: Gary Kline To: Garrett Cooper Cc: Giorgos Keramidas ; Grant Peel ; freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2007 4:19 AM Subject: Re: csh if..then delhema.

You are right on the money from my experience, Garrett. BillJoy got most things right, but the csh is a dead loser. (I was forced to xlate my /bin/sh code into csh for years! Foo!
