Can you reproduce this behaviour with bash as well? (trying to hint if it's a gnome-terminal issue or a tcsh issue) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Even if tcsh is set as the default shell, switching first to some other shell, and then back to tcsh seems to solve the problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I have used xterm, and the problem occurs there also. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Then you retry your cd command in the first session. Now if the first session had done its exit please attach the tcsh.trace file. Beside this I'd like to see what set -r reports that is the readonly variables. And I'd like to know which file system(s) types you're using. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I had overlooked your response. I think I have discovered the problem. I had used borrowed from a friend of mine to set a few common settings. This has caused the problem. On giving the command 'alias cd' I get the following output: chdir !*; setxprompt; echo $cwd >! ~/.cwd -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This works without any problems for an xterm.

I had forgotten all about the issue until your comment was notified. However, on the new version (openSuse 12.3), I find that the error is not being produced. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
