But your solution leads me to my next question: how do I configure >>trn so that it uses csh instead of sh as the environment in which to >>execute the piped command? >did you try: >setenv SHELL /bin/csh >? (This is all rather clearly documented in the man page) Yes, I execute setenv SHELL /bin/csh from my .cshrc, but it doesn't take hold. trn is still using /bin/sh. >Why do you need csh in this case, anyway? Because I have an alias that prints to a postscript printer like this: (cat .ps-prefix; cat ) | print -h -PNEC For misc. reasons, I would rather have that as an alias than a script. Thanks, Will
