Now I am really confused. I am accustomed to being able to change from the login shell, which in the case of my 9.3 installation is the bash shell, to the C shell by entering csh in a terminal.
Suddenly, if I try that I get an error message:
computation@abnormal:~/CompChem/nwchem-4.7> csh /usr/bin/.: Permission denied.
Seems something in your .cshrc or another csh startup script is using the Bourne/Bash shell syntax ". somefile" to "source" another file. Csh doesn't understand that syntax, and tries to execute a program called ".", and /usr/bin happens to be the first directory in its PATH, and you can't execute /usr/bin/. (which is a directory). -Ti -- Ti Kan http://www.amb.org/ti Vorsprung durch Technik
