Hi pete,
I tried the locate, and it didn't work here (10.4.1/tcsh). Just got 
an immediate command prompt.

I do see the .tcshrc file in my ~/ though, so at least i know it's there.

Here's the first few lines from my .tcshrc file, which was created 
quite a while ago, when jaguar was released, and then imported to a 
newer Mac, running Tiger:

>set implicitcd
>mesg y
>setenv PATH /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
>setenv PAGER less
>/bin/stty rows 60
>/bin/stty columns 160
>set histdup=erase
>set rmstar
>set prompt="%t %c % "
>set ampm
>set savehist=250 merge
>alias topu "/usr/bin/top -ua"
>alias bye "exit"


Isn't the mesg y supposed to be my 'greeting', from motd? It's been a 
while, as i said.

I don't recall using the $path to set PATH at all...time to hit the 
books... yesterday was too hot here to even read.

thanks,
