Possible bug in C-Shell

[Brad Appleton]

Thanks to all who replied to my "big" in C-Shell problem.  The problem, it
turns out is just that csh is a bit lazy in its parsing and just goes to the
first else it sees when the if-test fails (even if it's in a here document).
The smallest such example I came up with is:

         if ( foo == bah ) then
           cat <<END
         else echo wrong
         END
         else
           echo right
         end if

Now I have a question, can anyone out there come up with a plausible scenario
where I could take advantage of this "feature"? (sorry, just thinking out loud
again -- Ill stop now :-).

Thanx again for your replies!
