Of course you're right Adam. Nevertheless, inexperienced users will
run into trouble because recipes for doing things will usually
involve bashish commands. For somebody who is not at home on the
command-line, it's non-trivial to translate "export foo=bar" into
something that tcsh will understand. So I would still recommend
switching to bash (or zsh, my favorite shell).
