    How about this:

    if ( $?tcsh ) then
        bindkey "^W" backward-delete-word
        bindkey -k up history-search-backward
        bindkey -k down history-search-forward
    endif

For personal use I also do (for tcsh):

    set prompt = "%m:%/%# "

But the Amiga-style integrated history search is the feature I use the
most.   Having a multi-thousand line history actually becomes useful.
