Documents

The documents listed below are available from various places around the Internet. For your convenience, I've gathered the documents into a single location, to which I'll refer as "the archive." You can access the archive with a World Wide Web browser using the following URL:

http://www.primate.wisc.edu/software/csh-tcsh-book/index.html

Via anonymous FTP, connect to ftp.primate.wisc.edu and find the /pub/csh-tcsh-book directory. Gopher clients can connect to gopher.primate.wisc.edu, select the "Primate Center Software Archives" item, and then select "Using csh & tcsh".

The archive contains the following documents:

  • Using csh & tcsh—Errata. The errata sheet for this handbook.

  • tcsh(1). The tcsh manual page, from the tcsh source distribution. Based on the 4.4BSD csh manual page, but revised extensively for tcsh. There is also a perl script that converts the manual page to HTML form so that you can read it using a World Wide Web browser. This form allows you to skip around by topic.

  • csh(1). The csh manual page. You may already have an online version available via the man csh command. The version in the archive is taken from the 4.4BSD distribution.

  • An introduction to the C shell. A general introduction written by the C shell's author. Often included in the "UNIX papers" section of UNIX system documentation. ...
