Please do NOT use "/bin/test" as a command name

And just to add fuel to the fire:
What about personal aliases conflicting with csh script commands. For
example, many people around here alias rm to rm -i. This would break
many csh scripts. The PATH solution given in geoff's article would not
solve this problem.
Of course, a *very* conscientious programmer could unalias every
potentially conflicting name he uses in a script. :-)
