10.3: Revert to the tcsh shell after a clean install

Also a good hint if someone wants to use the new "bash" in 10.3. I upgraded my 10.3 and I'm ready to use the new and improved "bash"! =)

Try zsh for the best of both worlds.

Here are some links to get started:

I used zsh for a weekend and never went back to tcsh

10.3: Revert to the tcsh shell after a clean install
Authored by: webbix on Oct 27, '03 07:02:42PM

I was looking forward to having a good bash running (still need to learn more about using it though) but there are things I miss in tcsh. I had figured how to run tcsh (I actually just inserted in prefs for Terminal)as I missed some of my function from tcsh.

Somehow I have one of my aliases lauching with the term window every time (addaliasitem from a previous tip here). I have looked at .tcshrc, .cshrc, the tcsh/eamples/rc which I had modified previously, before running from /sw with Fink install.

I don't know where to look. Any tips for a poser geek? I just don't know where a command would be stored to execute on launch a new term window. BTW, does bash give any error on remote host with ssh for you? Or is it color-term?
