- Cshell is generally accepted over Bourne shell (sh) for the fact that it
- allows shell programming in the C language. TCshell is often used because
- it allows for WATCHes to be set. For instance, I use TCshell because I can
- leave a terminal window open and it will update me as to who is logging
- into and off my machine.
