Index:	man/man1/csh.1

Description:
	csh applies the `:p' substitution modifier to lines of input rather
	than to commands.

Repeat-By:
	Script started on Mon Mar 31 10:58:37 1986
	Warning: no access to tty; thus no job control in this shell...
	% ls /dev/null
	/dev/null
	% date ; !ls:p
	date ; ls /dev/null 
	% 
	script done on Mon Mar 31 10:58:49 1986

Fix:
	Change the line in "man/man1/csh.1" that reads:

		p	Print the new command but do not execute it.

	to read:

		p	Print the new command line but do not execute it.
