I just knew someone was going to comment on configuration. Fortunately I'm getting out of the ports business, so I'm just providing my diffs for whomever is going to maintain the tcsh port to look at. > The GUIDELINES way is beter : Okay. I'll take your word for it. I pulled that one out of the old tcsh patches from the port. >> ! #define VIDEFAULT >I can't agree :-) Like I said, these are my diffs. >> /* >> * DOTLAST put "." last in the default path, for security > reasons >> */ >> ! #undef DOTLAST >I don't agree either as it is useful for Joe User.

I never want the system to automatically log me out. But I may agree with you here, since it's easy to just unset the autologout variable. Still, this is my tcsh executable and I don't want to be bothered with unsetting autologout. >> * successful, set $REMOTEHOST to the name or address of the >> * host >> */ >> ! #undef REMOTEHOST >Why ?? It is useful... Ache once said it took a long time and since most of my shells are local ---actually, all the shells that run off this binary---I'm optimizing away the startup time.
