limit core 1.0e99 # no limit in this csh
set x1=23 ; echo ${x1} # variable syntax - Yes
if ( { date >/dev/null } ) echo ha ha # redirection ignored - Yes
eval "who|tr 'e' 'x'" # pipe ignored - Yes
date | if 1 echo hi ; jobs # spurious job id - Yes
setenv USER 'xxx*yyy' ; /bin/csh # gives (null pointer): No match
date ; exit ; date ; date ; date # four dates print - Yes
setenv xxx "XXX" ; set yyy "YYY" ; echo $#xxx $#yyy # XXX 1 - Yes
date | /bin/echo `cat` ; echo never see me # this one got fixed
This C-shell differs from the 4.2 shell also in that it has twenex-style
command and filename completion.
