Hi,
  In the current /etc/profile.d/complete.tcsh file a portion of the fix
suggested below
by Anders Ripa has been applied, but another critical part has not.  The
last three fixes 
with explicit "$HOME/" have been quoted, but the first fix has not been
applied.  Currently
I show the following as the needed patch:

> diff -c complete.tcsh complete.tcsh.orig
*** complete.tcsh       Sun Apr 27 12:08:25 2008
--- complete.tcsh.orig  Thu Apr 24 17:02:02 2008
***************
*** 39,45 ****
      set noglob
      if ( ! $?hosts ) set hosts
      foreach f ("$HOME/.hosts" /usr/local/etc/csh.hosts "$HOME/.rhosts"
/etc/hosts.equiv)
!         if ( -r "$f" ) then
            set hosts = ($hosts `grep -v "+" $f | grep -E -v "^#" | tr -s "
" "" | cut -f 1`)
        endif
      end
--- 39,45 ----
      set noglob
      if ( ! $?hosts ) set hosts
      foreach f ("$HOME/.hosts" /usr/local/etc/csh.hosts "$HOME/.rhosts"
/etc/hosts.equiv)
!         if ( -r $f ) then
            set hosts = ($hosts `grep -v "+" $f | grep -E -v "^#" | tr -s "
" "" | cut -f 1`)
        endif
      end



Thank you for your assistance

Problems starting tcsh when having spaces in username - with fix

Subject: Problems starting tcsh when having spaces in username - with fix 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I get the message :

================================
Anders Ripa at RIPA3 ~
$ tcsh
if: Expression Syntax.
>
================================

When I try to run the tcsh command on my Windows XP Home machine
The problem as far as I have been able to trace it is that I have set up my
user account with the name "Anders Ripa", e.g. it contains a space.
I have been able to trace the problem to the file:

/etc/profile.d/complete.tcsh

If I modify the file to use quotes in 4 places, then tcsh starts correctly.
================================
$ diff complete.tcsh  fixed_complete.tcsh

================================

Currently I have to reapply the fix when tcsh is updated.
I hope this can be of some help to other cygwin users.

Best regards
Anders Ripa
