Well, if I was making a shell script that JUST passed already passed
values to sub shells.... I would write it in sh because there is a 
facility which makes this function extremely easy.  See his previous
message for the problems csh causes....

But, if he REALLY likes csh... perhaps?

eval f `repeat $#argv eval 'echo -n \"$1\"\  ; shift'`

However, I still prefer ``foo "$@"'' for its simplicity.
