I smell a religious issue, but what the hell...

   ... what's wrong with csh? We have csh in the tree. It's in the root
   filesystem. Although I have certainly written bourne scripts galore,
   I tend to write ad-hoc scripts in csh because that's what I use as
   my shell, and hence that's what any interactive scripts are written
   in. What's so great about sh?
