/usr/new/csh is tcsh? I'm using it but it doesn't seem to behave
like tcsh. For example, emacs line editing works only when I do
an ESC to retrieve the previous command. Otherwise (when I'm just
typing in a new command), none of the emacs bindings (e.g., ^A, ^E, ...)
work at all. What am I doing wrong? I have 'setenv CSHEDIT emacs'
in my .login.

Note: maybe I don't understand tcsh. I've been using CMU's csh for
the last couple of years, and was under the impression that they
are similar.
