I'd like to add for archive purposes, that with csh, adding the
following within the 'if' block in .cshrc will provide a prompt that
includes the current working directory, without the full path (which I
also wanted:

set prompt = "%c1 % "

Output:

~/devel % ll

...that makes it a *lot* easier when I'm making changes[1].

[1]. Some may wonder why I don't have all Perl modules under one Eagle
umbrella. The only reason is because SVN stores rev numbers globally,
which throws off the package management system. I need to know which
version of which package is installed.

I've got ideas for writing something that aggregates the revs so I can
have all of ::these in one location, but during development, I need
version separation without having to fix version issues.

The nice thing is, is that all modules are Eagle::, so consolidating
won't be difficult later (ie won't affect APIs).
