Why is it that on my distributed SPARC system that when file completion in
csh is set, it doesn't work properly ?  If escape is pressed on the
command line, the command is simply not recognised.  This only happens on
the client machine, not the server.  As the file completion must obviously
read the current directory, could that be the problem that my machine has
to read the remote disk ?
