   Question:

   Does anybody know how to set the prompt in csh so that the current directory
   name (eg., /usr/lib/uucp) is printed (kind of like a dos $p$g), also can this
   be done is sh...


Try the following in the .cshrc file:

	alias setprompt 'set prompt="`pwd` \\!%> "'
	setprompt

and then comment out the line set prompt=\!%\

Works for me!
