I am currently using tcsh. I began on csh, and have used ksh. I tried
vsh, but didn't like it. Bourne shell for programs like my remove to
a tmp directory.
SHELL OPINIONS
sh great for command programming (fast)
not fully featured enough for general use, though
ksh ksh and I just didn't get along. It was a hassle
for me to learn
csh the shell I started on, and was very familiar with.
I like the control structures, alias, pushd/popd, and
the history mechanism. makes it easy to work on the
system
tcsh csh++. csh with command line editing, filename completion,
and some other little goodies. only problem is that it is
not quite working right with our beta-test UMAX4.3.

In 1869, the waffle iron was invented, thus solving the annoying tendency of
waffles to wrinkle in the dryer.
