I am having trouble with the "set filec" option of Sun's csh.  It works
fine in xterms, but doesn't work when I am using OpenLook's shelltool or
cmdtool.  Has anybody encountered this?  If so is there a way to get the
"set filec" option working in a shelltool or cmdtool?

Symptoms:

The user hits escape, the appropriate filename completions are seen, but
appear to have no effect.
