- No it is not a User error, thank you.
-
- I have modified the script I originally posted, and I still have problems. As
- you will recall, I am having trouble getting csh to execute this script
- correctly, so I modified it, so that it does not require any .cshrc file, etc.
-
- #!/bin/csh -f
- set test = `/bin/pwd`
- echo $test
- exit
-
- There, everything is explicit, and should work for everybody. However, it will
- only work on my A/UX 3.0, Mac IIfx, with 16 megs erratically. I ran it 10 times, consecutively, and it worked 3 out of the ten. The others, it never
- executed the pwd command. I ran it both under csh and tcsh with the same
- results. I realize that this should work for everybody; however, has anyone
- else had this problem or resolved a similar one?
