This is interesting. You are the second person in the last three weeks
who has talked about using this native tcsh shell (the other was
off-List).

I sure wouldn't find it worthwhile to use a different shell (that
doesn't understand what Cygwin has to do with mounts, and so on), but if
there's one thing I've learned, its that you can nenver tell another
person what they should like in a shell. Each to his own.
