:>	Hello.  I have seen several tcsh shells available on the net.  Is  
:>there any particularly compelling reason to use tcsh vs csh vs sh?

Cshell is generally accepted over Bourne shell (sh) for the fact that it  
allows shell programming in the C language. TCshell is often used because  
it allows for WATCHes to be set. For instance, I use TCshell because I can  
leave a terminal window open and it will update me as to who is logging  
into and off my machine.
