I've grown quite fond of tcsh - cause, it has file completion and SCROLLING
HISTORY.  Press tab to complete a filename, press tab to complete an executable
command name (easy, type mo[tab] and get "more"), press cntrl-P to scroll
through previously typed commands, no <bang> this <bang> that.  Funny thing,
working at HP EVERYONE used/loved ksh.  You can find it on gatekeeper.dec.com 
(or whatever it is - sorry, forget at the moment).  AND, as an added bonus, 
you can program tcsh just like it was csh.  Only drawback, its kinda big - at 
least compared to ksh and csh.  BUT STILL, Just say "NO".  There is a better 
way TCSH!
