(was Re: Import of tcsh into src/contrib/, replacing src/usr.bin/csh) References: <20000406134916.A23265@dragon.nuxi.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-arch@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It seems like the tendency is turning in favor of switching to tcsh... I'm gonna regret this but ...while people are in this discussion may I bring again the nawk vs gawk discussion? nawk has it's roots in the real UNIX, is under a liberal license, is maintained by one of the guys that invented UNIX, and is not as bloated and buggy as gawk. I understand it has less features than gawk, but if OpenBSD could live without those I don't see why we can't. cheers, Pedro.
