I can see why someone would become {tired, disgusted, outraged, driven
to insanity, etc.} by command.com.  I canNOT see why anyone would want
to go to csh as an alternative.

If you want a **IX shell, check out the MKS Toolkit.  It includes an
excellent implementation of the Korn shell (the Bourne shell on
steroids), vi, awk, and lots of other goodies.  Current price from the
Programmers Connection is $196.

If you really want csh, the Programmers Connection offers a C-Shell by
GW computers: $59 for the executable; $429 for executable and source.

It's worth buying something from Programmers Connection at least once
to get on their mailing list for their superb catalogues.  Like the
old Allied Radio (that dates me to the pre silicon era) catalogues,
they are not just adverts, but real reference works.

Disclaimer:  just a satisfied customer, but I can be bought.  Call for
the latest price!
