:) ... csh should be the default fro root and each user! But also 
OpenBSD betrayed its roots.

What I do wonder howver is why for csh (like root currently) 
autocompletion is not turned on. History neither (well, that perhaps for 
security reasons?). I always need to remember to enable it, or I hit 
"esc" or "!!" without success...

But as a user I always use tcsh. It has the correct way of piping stderr 
and stdout (bash? come on) but is handier for editing once all your 
temrinal emulation is set up.. like cursor keys, etc.
