su is better than login
Authored by: chabig on Jul 25, '02 12:26:21PM

Thanks for the tip on su. I just tried it and it is better than login for two very good reasons:

1) It does keep you at the same directory
2) It still lets you use the tcsh history. When I used login to change the user, I was not able to use my shell history any more.
