Just realized I never completed my footnote.

** Csh notoriously executed even loops and conditionals one command at
a time, and in the case of loops would rewind the input file seek
pointer to the start of the loop and execute it again until the loop
condition became false.  I wrote some entertaining self-modifying csh
scripts back in the day.  Anyway that's one reason why aliases in csh
behave differently.
