10.0 host and using pw command to adduser. pw adduser test -c Test-user -m -g wheel -w yes original /etc/csh.cshrc and /usr/share/skel/dot.cshrc files When I log into user test the prompt is a single dollar sign. Issuing the ll command i see .cshrc* Why does this file end with an *? I can edit the as .cshrc* or .cshrc and replace the existing set prompt statement with set prompt = "# %/ >" then save the file, exit and login again. The prompt is still a dollar sign. If I issue set prompt = "# %/ >" command from the test user command line the prompt still doe's not change. I can edit the /usr/share/skel/dot.cshrc replacing the existing set prompt with the new one, deluser test, adduser test, and still get dollar sign for the prompt even though I see the wanted prompt statement in user test home directory .cshrc* file. Another problem is the alias commands la and lf don't work but the ll alias does work.
