I can not run scripts. In slackware linux, I would write 'chmod +x filename' and filename would be 'filename*'. Then I would write filename at command prompt and it would run. Now, there is no * added to filename and when filename is written at command prompt, it behaves as if a bad command is entered. Thanks for your interest. Erkan Ertugrul eertugrul
There are two problems here: 1) The asterisk at the end of the file name is added by ls when given the option -F. Try adding alias ls 'ls -F' to your .cshrc 2) Your PATH environment variable does not contain the current directory so tcsh cannot find the filename entered on the command line. Either execute the script as ./filename (the preferred solution) or add the current directory to your PATH setenv PATH "$PATH:." Note: Adding the current directory to the end of your PATH is not recommended because it makes you vulnerable to "trojan horses" (i.e. scripts with the same name as a commonly used executable).
