You can't -- The Ultrix version is proprietary.

There are patches available for the Sun and BSD 4.3 csh source that do
something very similar, but you must have a Sun or BSD source license
for these to do you any good.

You may be able to obtain a Sun binary if you fish around a little.  I'm
not sure that such distribution is entirly kosher, but I've heard that
it's not too hard to find.

What your are looking for btw, is 'tcsh' or the tenex c-shell, a version
of csh that does command completion.
