    NAME

    csh - shell command interpreter with a C-like syntax
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    csh [-bcefinstvVxX] [argument]...
    

     

    DESCRIPTION

    csh, the C shell, is a command interpreter with a syntax reminiscent of the C language. It provides a number of convenient features for interactive use that are not available with the Bourne shell, including filename completion, command aliasing, history substitution, job control, and a number of built-in commands. As with the Bourne shell, the C shell provides variable, command and filename substitution.  

    Initialization and Termination

    When first started, the C shell normally performs commands from the .cshrc file in your home directory, provided that it is readable and you either own it or your real group ID matches its group ID. If the shell is invoked with a name that starts with `-', as when started by login(1), the shell runs as a login shell.

    If the shell is a login shell, this is the sequence of invocations: First, commands in /etc/.login are executed. Next, commands from the .cshrc file your home directory are executed. Then the shell executes commands from the .login file in your home directory; the same permission checks as those for .cshrc are applied to this file. Typically, the .login file contains commands to specify the terminal type and environment. (For an explanation of file interpreters, see Command Execution and exec(2).)

    As a login shell terminates, it performs commands from the .logout file in your home directory; the same permission checks as those for .cshrc are applied to this file.  

    Interactive Operation

    After startup processing is complete, an interactive C shell begins reading commands from the terminal, prompting with hostname% (or hostname# for the privileged user). The shell then repeatedly performs the following actions: a line of command input is read and broken into words. This sequence of words is placed on the history list and then parsed, as described under USAGE. Finally, the shell executes each command in the current line.  

    Noninteractive Operation

    When running noninteractively, the shell does not prompt for input from the terminal. A noninteractive C shell can execute a command supplied as an argument on its command line, or interpret commands from a file, also known as a script.  

    OPTIONS

    The following options are supported:

    -b

    Forced a "break" from option processing. Subsequent command line arguments are not interpreted as C shell options. This allows the passing of options to a script without confusion. The shell does not run set-user-ID or set-group-ID scripts unless this option is present.

    -c

    Executes the first argument, which must be present. Remaining arguments are placed in argv, the argument-list variable, and passed directly to csh.

    -e

    Exits if a command terminates abnormally or yields a nonzero exit status.

    -f

    Fast start. Reads neither the .cshrc file, nor the .login file (if a login shell) upon startup.

    -i

    Forced interactive. Prompts for command line input, even if the standard input does not appear to be a terminal (character-special device).

    -n

    Parses (interprets), but does not execute commands. This option can be used to check C shell scripts for syntax errors.

    -s

    Takes commands from the standard input.

    -t

    Reads and executes a single command line. A `\' (backslash) can be used to escape each newline for continuation of the command line onto subsequent input lines.

    -v

    Verbose. Sets the verbose predefined variable. Command input is echoed after history substitution, but before other substitutions and before execution.

    -V

    Sets verbose before reading .cshrc.

    -x

    Echo. Sets the echo variable. Echoes commands after all substitutions and just before execution.

    -X

    Sets echo before reading .cshrc.

    Except with the options -c, -i, -s, or -t, the first nonoption argument is taken to be the name of a command or script. It is passed as argument zero, and subsequent arguments are added to the argument list for that command or script.  

    USAGE

     

    Filename Completion

    When enabled by setting the variable filec, an interactive C shell can complete a partially typed filename or user name. When an unambiguous partial filename is followed by an ESC character on the terminal input line, the shell fills in the remaining characters of a matching filename from the working directory.

    If a partial filename is followed by the EOF character (usually typed as Control-d), the shell lists all filenames that match. It then prompts once again, supplying the incomplete command line typed in so far.

    When the last (partial) word begins with a tilde (~), the shell attempts completion with a user name, rather than a file in the working directory.

    The terminal bell signals errors or multiple matches. This bell signal can be inhibited by setting the variable nobeep. You can exclude files with certain suffixes by listing those suffixes in the variable fignore. If, however, the only possible completion includes a suffix in the list, it is not ignored. fignore does not affect the listing of filenames by the EOF character.  

    Lexical Structure

    The shell splits input lines into words at space and tab characters, except as noted below. The characters &, |, ;, <, >, (, and ) form separate words; if paired, the pairs form single words. These shell metacharacters can be made part of other words, and their special meaning can be suppressed by preceding them with a `\' (backslash). A newline preceded by a \ is equivalent to a space character.

    In addition, a string enclosed in matched pairs of single-quotes ('), double-quotes ("), or backquotes (`), forms a partial word. Metacharacters in such a string, including any space or tab characters, do not form separate words. Within pairs of backquote (`) or double-quote (") characters, a newline preceded by a `\' (backslash) gives a true newline character. Additional functions of each type of quote are described, below, under Variable Substitution, Command Substitution, and Filename Substitution.

    When the shell's input is not a terminal, the character # introduces a comment that continues to the end of the input line. Its special meaning is suppressed when preceded by a \ or enclosed in matching quotes.  

    Command Line Parsing

    A simple command is composed of a sequence of words. The first word (that is not part of an I/O redirection) specifies the command to be executed. A simple command, or a set of simple commands separated by | or |& characters, forms a pipeline. With |, the standard output of the preceding command is redirected to the standard input of the command that follows. With |&, both the standard error and the standard output are redirected through the pipeline.

    Pipelines can be separated by semicolons (;), in which case they are executed sequentially. Pipelines that are separated by && or || form conditional sequences in which the execution of pipelines on the right depends upon the success or failure, respectively, of the pipeline on the left.

    A pipeline or sequence can be enclosed within parentheses `()' to form a simple command that can be a component in a pipeline or sequence.

    A sequence of pipelines can be executed asynchronously or "in the background" by appending an `&'; rather than waiting for the sequence to finish before issuing a prompt, the shell displays the job number (see Job Control, below) and associated process IDs and prompts immediately.  

    History Substitution

    History substitution allows you to use words from previous command lines in the command line you are typing. This simplifies spelling corrections and the repetition of complicated commands or arguments. Command lines are saved in the history list, the size of which is controlled by the history variable. The most recent command is retained in any case. A history substitution begins with a ! (although you can change this with the histchars variable) and occurs anywhere on the command line; history substitutions do not nest. The ! can be escaped with \ to suppress its special meaning.

    Input lines containing history substitutions are echoed on the terminal after being expanded, but before any other substitutions take place or the command gets executed.  

    Event Designators

    An event designator is a reference to a command line entry in the history list.

    !

    Start a history substitution, except when followed by a space character, tab, newline, = or (.

    !!

    Refer to the previous command. By itself, this substitution repeats the previous command.

    !n

    Refer to command line n.

    !-n

    Refer to the current command line minus n.

    !str

    Refer to the most recent command starting with str.

    !?str?

    Refer to the most recent command containing str.

    !?str? additional

    Refer to the most recent command containing str and append additional to that referenced command.

    !{command} additional

    Refer to the most recent command beginning with command and append additional to that referenced command.

    ^previous_word^replacement^

    Repeat the previous command line replacing the string previous_word with the string replacement. This is equivalent to the history substitution:

    !:s/previous_word/replacement/.
    

    To re-execute a specific previous command AND make such a substitution, say, re-executing command #6,

    !:6s/previous_word/replacement/.
    

     

    Word Designators

    A `:' (colon) separates the event specification from the word designator. It can be omitted if the word designator begins with a ^, $, *, - or %. If the word is to be selected from the previous command, the second ! character can be omitted from the event specification. For instance, !!:1 and !:1 both refer to the first word of the previous command, while !!$ and !$ both refer to the last word in the previous command. Word designators include:

    #

    The entire command line typed so far.

    0

    The first input word (command).

    n

    The n'th argument.

    ^

    The first argument, that is, 1.

    $

    The last argument.

    %

    The word matched by the ?s search.

    x-y

    A range of words; -y abbreviates 0-y.

    *

    All the arguments, or a null value if there is just one word in the event.

    x*

    Abbreviates x-$.

    x-

    Like x* but omitting word $.

     

    Modifiers

    After the optional word designator, you can add one of the following modifiers, preceded by a :.

    h

    Remove a trailing pathname component, leaving the head.

    r

    Remove a trailing suffix of the form `.xxx', leaving the basename.

    e

    Remove all but the suffix, leaving the Extension.

    s/l/r/

    Substitute r for l.

    t

    Remove all leading pathname components, leaving the tail.

    &

    Repeat the previous substitution.

    g

    Apply the change to the first occurrence of a match in each word, by prefixing the above (for example, g&).

    p

    Print the new command but do not execute it.

    q

    Quote the substituted words,escaping further substitutions.

    x

    Like q, but break into words at each space character, tab or newline.

    Unless preceded by a g, the modification is applied only to the first string that matches l; an error results if no string matches.

    The left-hand side of substitutions are not regular expressions, but character strings. Any character can be used as the delimiter in place of /. A backslash quotes the delimiter character. The character &, in the right hand side, is replaced by the text from the left-hand-side. The & can be quoted with a backslash. A null l uses the previous string either from a l or from a contextual scan string s from !?s. You can omit the rightmost delimiter if a newline immediately follows r; the rightmost ? in a context scan can similarly be omitted.

    Without an event specification, a history reference refers either to the previous command, or to a previous history reference on the command line (if any).  

    Quick Substitution

    ^l^r^

    This is equivalent to the history substitution:

    !:s/l/r/.
    

     

    Aliases

    The C shell maintains a list of aliases that you can create, display, and modify using the alias and unalias commands. The shell checks the first word in each command to see if it matches the name of an existing alias. If it does, the command is reprocessed with the alias definition replacing its name; the history substitution mechanism is made available as though that command were the previous input line. This allows history substitutions, escaped with a backslash in the definition, to be replaced with actual command line arguments when the alias is used. If no history substitution is called for, the arguments remain unchanged.

    Aliases can be nested. That is, an alias definition can contain the name of another alias. Nested aliases are expanded before any history substitutions is applied. This is useful in pipelines such as

    alias lm 'ls -l \!* | more'
    

    which when called, pipes the output of ls(1) through more(1).

    Except for the first word, the name of the alias can not appear in its definition, nor in any alias referred to by its definition. Such loops are detected, and cause an error message.  

    I/O Redirection

    The following metacharacters indicate that the subsequent word is the name of a file to which the command's standard input, standard output, or standard error is redirected; this word is variable, command, and filename expanded separately from the rest of the command.

    <

    Redirect the standard input.

    <<word

    Read the standard input, up to a line that is identical with word, and place the resulting lines in a temporary file. Unless word is escaped or quoted, variable and command substitutions are performed on these lines. Then, the pipeline is invoked with the temporary file as its standard input. word is not subjected to variable, filename, or command substitution, and each line is compared to it before any substitutions are performed by the shell.

    > >! >& >&!

    Redirect the standard output to a file. If the file does not exist, it is created. If it does exist, it is overwritten; its previous contents are lost.

    When set, the variable noclobber prevents destruction of existing files. It also prevents redirection to terminals and /dev/null, unless one of the ! forms is used. The & forms redirect both standard output and the standard error (diagnostic output) to the file.

    >> >>& >>! >>&!

    Append the standard output. Like >, but places output at the end of the file rather than overwriting it. If noclobber is set, it is an error for the file not to exist, unless one of the ! forms is used. The & forms append both the standard error and standard output to the file.

     

    Variable Substitution

    The C shell maintains a set of variables, each of which is composed of a name and a value. A variable name consists of up to 128 letters and digits, and starts with a letter. An underscore (_) is considered a letter). A variable's value is a space-separated list of zero or more words. If the shell supports a variable name upto 128 characters the variable SUNW_VARLEN is defined. If a variable name of up to 128 characters is not supported, then an older version of the shell is being used, and the shell variable name length has a maximum length of 20.

    To refer to a variable's value, precede its name with a `$'. Certain references (described below) can be used to select specific words from the value, or to display other information about the variable. Braces can be used to insulate the reference from other characters in an input-line word.

    Variable substitution takes place after the input line is analyzed, aliases are resolved, and I/O redirections are applied. Exceptions to this are variable references in I/O redirections (substituted at the time the redirection is made), and backquoted strings (see Command Substitution).

    Variable substitution can be suppressed by preceding the $ with a \, except within double-quotes where it always occurs. Variable substitution is suppressed inside of single-quotes. A $ is escaped if followed by a space character, tab or newline.

    Variables can be created, displayed, or destroyed using the set and unset commands. Some variables are maintained or used by the shell. For instance, the argv variable contains an image of the shell's argument list. Of the variables used by the shell, a number are toggles; the shell does not care what their value is, only whether they are set or not.

    Numerical values can be operated on as numbers (as with the @ built-in command). With numeric operations, an empty value is considered to be zero. The second and subsequent words of multiword values are ignored. For instance, when the verbose variable is set to any value (including an empty value), command input is echoed on the terminal.

    Command and filename substitution is subsequently applied to the words that result from the variable substitution, except when suppressed by double-quotes, when noglob is set (suppressing filename substitution), or when the reference is quoted with the :q modifier. Within double-quotes, a reference is expanded to form (a portion of) a quoted string; multiword values are expanded to a string with embedded space characters. When the :q modifier is applied to the reference, it is expanded to a list of space-separated words, each of which is quoted to prevent subsequent command or filename substitutions.

    Except as noted below, it is an error to refer to a variable that is not set.

    $var
    ${var}

    These are replaced by words from the value of var, each separated by a space character. If var is an environment variable, its value is returned (but `:' modifiers and the other forms given below are not available).

    $var[index]
    ${var[index]}

    These select only the indicated words from the value of var. Variable substitution is applied to index, which can consist of (or result in) a either single number, two numbers separated by a `-', or an asterisk. Words are indexed starting from 1; a `*' selects all words. If the first number of a range is omitted (as with $argv[-2]), it defaults to 1. If the last number of a range is omitted (as with $argv[1-]), it defaults to $#var (the word count). It is not an error for a range to be empty if the second argument is omitted (or within range).

    $#name
    ${#name}

    These give the number of words in the variable.

    $0

    This substitutes the name of the file from which command input is being read except for setuid shell scripts. An error occurs if the name is not known.

    $n
    ${n}

    Equivalent to $argv[n].

    $*

    Equivalent to $argv[*].

    The modifiers :e, :h, :q, :r, :t, and :x can be applied (see History Substitution), as can :gh, :gt, and :gr. If {} (braces) are used, then the modifiers must appear within the braces. The current implementation allows only one such modifier per expansion.

    The following references can not be modified with : modifiers.

    $?var
    ${?var}

    Substitutes the string 1 if var is set or 0 if it is not set.

    $?0

    Substitutes 1 if the current input filename is known or 0 if it is not.

    $$

    Substitutes the process number of the (parent) shell.

    $<

    Substitutes a line from the standard input, with no further interpretation thereafter. It can be used to read from the keyboard in a C shell script.

     

    Command and Filename Substitutions

    Command and filename substitutions are applied selectively to the arguments of built-in commands. Portions of expressions that are not evaluated are not expanded. For non-built-in commands, filename expansion of the command name is done separately from that of the argument list; expansion occurs in a subshell, after I/O redirection is performed.  

    Command Substitution

    A command enclosed by backquotes (`...`) is performed by a subshell. Its standard output is broken into separate words at each space character, tab and newline; null words are discarded. This text replaces the backquoted string on the current command line. Within double-quotes, only newline characters force new words; space and tab characters are preserved. However, a final newline is ignored. It is therefore possible for a command substitution to yield a partial word.  

    Filename Substitution

    Unquoted words containing any of the characters *, ?, [ or {, or that begin with ~, are expanded (also known as globbing) to an alphabetically sorted list of filenames, as follows:

    *

    Match any (zero or more) characters.

    ?

    Match any single character.

    [...]

    Match any single character in the enclosed list(s) or range(s). A list is a string of characters. A range is two characters separated by a dash (-), and includes all the characters in between in the ASCII collating sequence (see ascii(5)).

    {str, str, ... }

    Expand to each string (or filename-matching pattern) in the comma-separated list. Unlike the pattern-matching expressions above, the expansion of this construct is not sorted. For instance, {b,a} expands to `b' `a', (not `a' `b'). As special cases, the characters { and }, along with the string {}, are passed undisturbed.

    ~[user]

    Your home directory, as indicated by the value of the variable home, or that of user, as indicated by the password entry for user.

    Only the patterns *, ? and [...] imply pattern matching; an error results if no filename matches a pattern that contains them. The `.' (dot character), when it is the first character in a filename or pathname component, must be matched explicitly. The / (slash) must also be matched explicitly.  

    Expressions and Operators

    A number of C shell built-in commands accept expressions, in which the operators are similar to those of C and have the same precedence. These expressions typically appear in the @, exit, if, set and while commands, and are often used to regulate the flow of control for executing commands. Components of an expression are separated by white space.

    Null or missing values are considered 0. The result of all expressions is a string, which can represent decimal numbers.

    The following C shell operators are grouped in order of precedence:

    (...)

    grouping

    >~

    one's complement

    !

    logical negation

    * / %

    multiplication, division, remainder. These are right associative, which can lead to unexpected results. Combinations should be grouped explicitly with parentheses.

    + -

    addition, subtraction (also right associative)

    << >>

    bitwise shift left, bitwise shift right

    < > <= >=

    less than, greater than, less than or equal to, greater than or equal to

    == != =~ !~

    equal to, not equal to, filename-substitution pattern match (described below), filename-substitution pattern mismatch

    &

    bitwise AND

    ^

    bitwise XOR (exclusive or)

    |

    bitwise inclusive OR

    &&

    logical AND

    ||

    logical OR

    The operators: ==, !=, =~, and !~ compare their arguments as strings; other operators use numbers. The operators =~ and !~ each check whether or not a string to the left matches a filename substitution pattern on the right. This reduces the need for switch statements when pattern-matching between strings is all that is required.

    Also available are file inquiries:

    -rfilename

    Return true, or 1 if the user has read access. Otherwise it returns false, or 0.

    -wfilename

    True if the user has write access.

    -xfilename

    True if the user has execute permission (or search permission on a directory).

    -efilename

    True if filename exists.

    -ofilename

    True if the user owns filename.

    -z filename

    True if filename is of zero length (empty).

    -ffilename

    True if filename is a plain file.

    -dfilename

    True if filename is a directory.

    If filename does not exist or is inaccessible, then all inquiries return false.

    An inquiry as to the success of a command is also available:

    { command}

    If command runs successfully, the expression evaluates to true, 1. Otherwise, it evaluates to false, 0. Note: Conversely, command itself typically returns 0 when it runs successfully, or some other value if it encounters a problem. If you want to get at the status directly, use the value of the status variable rather than this expression.

     

    Control Flow

    The shell contains a number of commands to regulate the flow of control in scripts and within limits, from the terminal. These commands operate by forcing the shell either to reread input (to loop), or to skip input under certain conditions (to branch).

    Each occurrence of a foreach, switch, while, if...then and else built-in command must appear as the first word on its own input line.

    If the shell's input is not seekable and a loop is being read, that input is buffered. The shell performs seeks within the internal buffer to accomplish the rereading implied by the loop. (To the extent that this allows, backward goto commands succeeds on nonseekable inputs.)  

    Command Execution

    If the command is a C shell built-in command, the shell executes it directly. Otherwise, the shell searches for a file by that name with execute access. If the command name contains a /, the shell takes it as a pathname, and searches for it. If the command name does not contain a /, the shell attempts to resolve it to a pathname, searching each directory in the path variable for the command. To speed the search, the shell uses its hash table (see the rehash built-in command) to eliminate directories that have no applicable files. This hashing can be disabled with the -c or -t, options, or the unhash built-in command.

    As a special case, if there is no / in the name of the script and there is an alias for the word shell, the expansion of the shell alias is prepended (without modification) to the command line. The system attempts to execute the first word of this special (late-occurring) alias, which should be a full pathname. Remaining words of the alias's definition, along with the text of the input line, are treated as arguments.

    When a pathname is found that has proper execute permissions, the shell forks a new process and passes it, along with its arguments, to the kernel using the execve() system call (see exec(2)). The kernel then attempts to overlay the new process with the desired program. If the file is an executable binary (in a.out(4) format) the kernel succeeds and begins executing the new process. If the file is a text file and the first line begins with #!, the next word is taken to be the pathname of a shell (or command) to interpret that script. Subsequent words on the first line are taken as options for that shell. The kernel invokes (overlays) the indicated shell, using the name of the script as an argument.

    If neither of the above conditions holds, the kernel cannot overlay the file and the execve() call fails (see exec(2)). The C shell then attempts to execute the file by spawning a new shell, as follows:

    o If the first character of the file is a #, a C shell is invoked.
    o Otherwise, a Bourne shell is invoked.
     

    Signal Handling

    The shell normally ignores QUIT signals. Background jobs are immune to signals generated from the keyboard, including hangups (HUP). Other signals have the values that the C shell inherited from its environment. The shell's handling of interrupt and terminate signals within scripts can be controlled by the onintr built-in command. Login shells catch the TERM signal. Otherwise, this signal is passed on to child processes. In no case are interrupts allowed when a login shell is reading the .logout file.  

    Job Control

    The shell associates a numbered job with each command sequence to keep track of those commands that are running in the background or have been stopped with TSTP signals (typically Control-z). When a command or command sequence (semicolon separated list) is started in the background using the & metacharacter, the shell displays a line with the job number in brackets and a list of associated process numbers:

    [1] 1234
    

    To see the current list of jobs, use the jobs built-in command. The job most recently stopped (or put into the background if none are stopped) is referred to as the current job and is indicated with a `+'. The previous job is indicated with a `-'. When the current job is terminated or moved to the foreground, this job takes its place (becomes the new current job).

    To manipulate jobs, refer to the bg, fg, kill, stop, and % built-in commands.

    A reference to a job begins with a `%'. By itself, the percent-sign refers to the current job.

    % %+ %%

    The current job.

    %-

    The previous job.

    %j

    Refer to job j as in: `kill -9 %j'. j can be a job number, or a string that uniquely specifies the command line by which it was started; `fg %vi' might bring a stopped vi job to the foreground, for instance.

    %?string

    Specify the job for which the command line uniquely contains string.

    A job running in the background stops when it attempts to read from the terminal. Background jobs can normally produce output, but this can be suppressed using the `stty tostop' command.  

    Status Reporting

    While running interactively, the shell tracks the status of each job and reports whenever the job finishes or becomes blocked. It normally displays a message to this effect as it issues a prompt, in order to avoid disturbing the appearance of your input. When set, the notify variable indicates that the shell is to report status changes immediately. By default, the notify command marks the current process; after starting a background job, type notify to mark it.  

    Commands

    Built-in commands are executed within the C shell. If a built-in command occurs as any component of a pipeline except the last, it is executed in a subshell.

    :

    Null command. This command is interpreted, but performs no action.

    alias [ name [ def ] ]

    Assign def to the alias name. def is a list of words that can contain escaped history-substitution metasyntax. name is not allowed to be alias or unalias. If def is omitted, the current definition for the alias name is displayed. If both name and def are omitted, all aliases are displayed with their definitions.

    bg [ %job ... ]

    Run the current or specified jobs in the background.

    break

    Resume execution after the end of the nearest enclosing foreach or while loop. The remaining commands on the current line are executed. This allows multilevel breaks to be written as a list of break commands, all on one line.

    breaksw

    Break from a switch, resuming after the endsw.

    case label:

    A label in a switch statement.

    cd [dir ]
    chdir [dir ]

    Change the shell's working directory to directory dir. If no argument is given, change to the home directory of the user. If dir is a relative pathname not found in the current directory, check for it in those directories listed in the cdpath variable. If dir is the name of a shell variable whose value starts with a /, change to the directory named by that value.

    continue

    Continue execution of the next iteration of the nearest enclosing while or foreach loop.

    default:

    Labels the default case in a switch statement. The default should come after all case labels. Any remaining commands on the command line are first executed.

    dirs [-l]

    Print the directory stack, most recent to the left. The first directory shown is the current directory. With the -l argument, produce an unabbreviated printout; use of the ~ notation is suppressed.

    echo [-n] list

    The words in list are written to the shell's standard output, separated by space characters. The output is terminated with a newline unless the -n option is used. csh, by default, invokes its built-in echo, if echo is called without the full pathname of a Unix command, regardless of the configuration of your PATH (see echo(1)).

    eval argument...

    Reads the arguments as input to the shell and executes the resulting command(s). This is usually used to execute commands generated as the result of command or variable substitution. See tset(1B) for an example of how to use eval.

    exec command

    Execute command in place of the current shell, which terminates.

    exit [(expr)]

    The calling shell or shell script exits, either with the value of the status variable or with the value specified by the expression expr.

    fg [%job ]

    Bring the current or specified job into the foreground.

    foreach var(wordlist)
    ...
    end

    The variable var is successively set to each member of wordlist. The sequence of commands between this command and the matching end is executed for each new value of var. Both foreach and end must appear alone on separate lines.

    The built-in command continue can be used to terminate the execution of the current iteration of the loop and the built-in command break can be used to terminate execution of the foreach command. When this command is read from the terminal, the loop is read once prompting with ? before any statements in the loop are executed.

    glob wordlist

    Perform filename expansion on wordlist. Like echo, but no \ escapes are recognized. Words are delimited by NULL characters in the output.

    gotolabel

    The specified label is a filename and a command expanded to yield a label. The shell rewinds its input as much as possible and searches for a line of the form label: possibly preceded by space or tab characters. Execution continues after the indicated line. It is an error to jump to a label that occurs between a while or for built-in command and its corresponding end.

    hashstat

    Print a statistics line indicating how effective the internal hash table for the path variable has been at locating commands (and avoiding execs). An exec is attempted for each component of the path where the hash function indicates a possible hit and in each component that does not begin with a `/'. These statistics only reflect the effectiveness of the path variable, not the cdpath variable.

    history [-hr] [n]

    Display the history list; if n is given, display only the n most recent events.

    -r

    Reverse the order of printout to be most recent first rather than oldest first.

    -h

    Display the history list without leading numbers. This is used to produce files suitable for sourcing using the -h option to source.

    if (expr )command

    If the specified expression evaluates to true, the single command with arguments is executed. Variable substitution on command happens early, at the same time it does for the rest of the if command. command must be a simple command, not a pipeline, a command list, or a parenthesized command list. Note: I/O redirection occurs even if expr is false, when command is not executed (this is a bug).

    if (expr) then
    ...
    else if (expr2) then
    ...
    else
    ...
    endif

    If expr is true, commands up to the first else are executed. Otherwise, if expr2 is true, the commands between the else if and the second else are executed. Otherwise, commands between the else and the endif are executed. Any number of else if pairs are allowed, but only one else. Only one endif is needed, but it is required. The words else and endif must be the first nonwhite characters on a line. The if must appear alone on its input line or after an else.

    jobs [-l]

    List the active jobs under job control.

    -l

    List process IDs, in addition to the normal information.

    kill [sig ] [ pid ] [ %job ] ...
    kill -l

    Send the TERM (terminate) signal, by default, or the signal specified, to the specified process ID, the job indicated, or the current job. Signals are either given by number or by name. There is no default. Typing kill does not send a signal to the current job. If the signal being sent is TERM (terminate) or HUP (hangup), then the job or process is sent a CONT (continue) signal as well.

    -l

    List the signal names that can be sent.

    limit [-h] [resource [max-use ] ]

    Limit the consumption by the current process or any process it spawns, each not to exceed max-use on the specified resource. The string unlimited requests that the current limit, if any, be removed. If max-use is omitted, print the current limit. If resource is omitted, display all limits. Run the sysdef(1M) command to display maximum limits for certain resources in your system (although it does not report stack size). The values reported are in hexadecimal, but can be translated into decimal numbers using the bc(1) command.

    -h

    Use hard limits instead of the current limits. Hard limits impose a ceiling on the values of the current limits. Only the privileged user can raise the hard limits.

    resource is one of:

    cputime

    Maximum CPU seconds per process.

    filesize

    Largest single file allowed. Limited to the size of the filesystem. (See df(1M)).

    datasize (heapsize)

    Maximum data size (including stack) for the process. This is the size of your virtual memory See swap(1M).

    stacksize

    Maximum stack size for the process. The default stack size is 2^64 bytes. You can use limit(1) to change this default within a shell.

    coredumpsize

    Maximum size of a core dump (file). This limited to the size of the filesystem.

    descriptors

    Maximum number of file descriptors. Run sysdef().

    memorysize

    Maximum size of virtual memory.

    max-use is a number, with an optional scaling factor, as follows:

    nh

    Hours (for cputime).

    nk

    n kilobytes. This is the default for all but cputime.

    nm

    n megabytes or minutes (for cputime).

    mm:ss

    Minutes and seconds (for cputime).

    Example of limit: To limit the size of a core file dump to 0 Megabytes, type the following:

    limit coredumpsize 0M
    

    login [username| -p ]

    Terminate a login shell and invoke login(1). The .logout file is not processed. If username is omitted, login prompts for the name of a user.

    -p

    Preserve the current environment (variables).

    logout

    Terminate a login shell.

    nice [+n |-n ] [command ]

    Increment the process priority value for the shell or for command by n. The higher the priority value, the lower the priority of a process, and the slower it runs. When given, command is always run in a subshell, and the restrictions placed on commands in simple if commands apply. If command is omitted, nice increments the value for the current shell. If no increment is specified, nice sets the process priority value to 4. The range of process priority values is from -20 to 20. Values of n outside this range set the value to the lower, or to the higher boundary, respectively.

    +n

    Increment the process priority value by n.

    -n

    Decrement by n. This argument can be used only by the privileged user.

    nohup [command ]

    Run command with HUPs ignored. With no arguments, ignore HUPs throughout the remainder of a script. When given, command is always run in a subshell, and the restrictions placed on commands in simple if statements apply. All processes detached with & are effectively nohup'd.

    notify [%job] ...

    Notify the user asynchronously when the status of the current job or specified jobs changes.

    onintr [-| label]

    Control the action of the shell on interrupts. With no arguments, onintr restores the default action of the shell on interrupts. (The shell terminates shell scripts and returns to the terminal command input level). With the - argument, the shell ignores all interrupts. With a label argument, the shell executes a goto label when an interrupt is received or a child process terminates because it was interrupted.

    popd [+n ]

    Pop the directory stack and cd to the new top directory. The elements of the directory stack are numbered from 0 starting at the top.

    +n

    Discard the n'th entry in the stack.

    pushd [+n |dir]

    Push a directory onto the directory stack. With no arguments, exchange the top two elements.

    +n

    Rotate the n'th entry to the top of the stack and cd to it.

    dir

    Push the current working directory onto the stack and change to dir.

    rehash

    Recompute the internal hash table of the contents of directories listed in the path variable to account for new commands added. Recompute the internal hash table of the contents of directories listed in the cdpath variable to account for new directories added.

    repeat count command

    Repeat command count times. command is subject to the same restrictions as with the one-line if statement.

    set [var [= value ] ]
    set var[n] = word

    With no arguments, set displays the values of all shell variables. Multiword values are displayed as a parenthesized list. With the var argument alone, set assigns an empty (null) value to the variable var. With arguments of the form var = value set assigns value to var, where value is one of:

    word

    A single word (or quoted string).

    (wordlist)

    A space-separated list of words enclosed in parentheses.

    Values are command and filename expanded before being assigned. The form setvar[n] = word replaces the n'th word in a multiword value with word.

    setenv [VAR [word ] ]

    With no arguments, setenv displays all environment variables. With the VAR argument, setenv sets the environment variable VAR to have an empty (null) value. (By convention, environment variables are normally given upper-case names.) With both VAR and word arguments, setenv sets the environment variable NAME to the value word, which must be either a single word or a quoted string. The most commonly used environment variables, USER, TERM, and PATH, are automatically imported to and exported from the csh variables user, term, and path. There is no need to use setenv for these. In addition, the shell sets the PWD environment variable from the csh variable cwd whenever the latter changes.

    The environment variables LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES, LC_TIME, LC_COLLATE, LC_NUMERIC, and LC_MONETARY take immediate effect when changed within the C shell.

    If any of the LC_* variables (LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES, LC_TIME, LC_COLLATE, LC_NUMERIC, and LC_MONETARY) (see environ(5)) are not set in the environment, the operational behavior of csh for each corresponding locale category is determined by the value of the LANG environment variable. If LC_ALL is set, its contents are used to override both the LANG and the other LC_* variables. If none of the above variables is set in the environment, the "C" (U.S. style) locale determines how csh behaves.

    LC_CTYPE

    Determines how csh handles characters. When LC_CTYPE is set to a valid value, csh can display and handle text and filenames containing valid characters for that locale.

    LC_MESSAGES

    Determines how diagnostic and informative messages are presented. This includes the language and style of the messages and the correct form of affirmative and negative responses. In the "C" locale, the messages are presented in the default form found in the program itself (in most cases, U.S./English).

    LC_NUMERIC

    Determines the value of the radix character, decimal point, (.) in the "C" locale) and thousand separator, empty string ("") in the "C" locale).

    shift [variable ]

    The components of argv, or variable, if supplied, are shifted to the left, discarding the first component. It is an error for the variable not to be set or to have a null value.

    source [-h] name

    Reads commands from name. source commands can be nested, but if they are nested too deeply the shell can run out of file descriptors. An error in a sourced file at any level terminates all nested source commands.

    -h

    Place commands from the file name on the history list without executing them.

    stop %jobid ...

    Stop the current or specified background job.

    stop pid ...

    Stop the specified process, pid. (see ps(1)).

    suspend

    Stop the shell in its tracks, much as if it had been sent a stop signal with ^Z. This is most often used to stop shells started by su.

    switch (string)
    case label:
    ...
    breaksw
    ...
    default:
    ...
    breaksw
    endsw

    Each label is successively matched, against the specified string, which is first command and filename expanded. The file metacharacters *, ? and [...] can be used in the case labels, which are variable expanded. If none of the labels match before a "default" label is found, execution begins after the default label. Each case statement and the default statement must appear at the beginning of a line. The command breaksw continues execution after the endsw. Otherwise control falls through subsequent case and default statements as with C. If no label matches and there is no default, execution continues after the endsw.

    time [command ]

    With no argument, print a summary of time used by this C shell and its children. With an optional command, execute command and print a summary of the time it uses. As of this writing, the time built-in command does NOT compute the last 6 fields of output, rendering the output to erroneously report the value 0 for these fields.

    example %time ls -R 
           9.0u 11.0s 3:32 10% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
    

    (See the Environment Variables and Predefined Shell Variables sub-section on the time variable.)

    umask [value ]

    Display the file creation mask. With value, set the file creation mask. With value given in octal, the user can turn off any bits, but cannot turn on bits to allow new permissions. Common values include 077, restricting all permissions from everyone else; 002, giving complete access to the group, and read (and directory search) access to others; or 022, giving read (and directory search) but not write permission to the group and others.

    unalias pattern

    Discard aliases that match (filename substitution) pattern. All aliases are removed by `unalias *'.

    unhash

    Disable the internal hash tables for the path and cdpath variables.

    unlimit [-h] [resource ]

    Remove a limitation on resource. If no resource is specified, then all resource limitations are removed. See the description of the limit command for the list of resource names.

    -h

    Remove corresponding hard limits. Only the privileged user can do this.

    unset pattern

    Remove variables whose names match (filename substitution) pattern. All variables are removed by `unset *'; this has noticeably distasteful side effects.

    unsetenv variable

    Remove variable from the environment. As with unset, pattern matching is not performed.

    wait

    Wait for background jobs to finish (or for an interrupt) before prompting.

    while (expr)
    ...
    end

    While expr is true (evaluates to nonzero), repeat commands between the while and the matching end statement. break and continue can be used to terminate or continue the loop prematurely. The while and end must appear alone on their input lines. If the shell's input is a terminal, it prompts for commands with a question-mark until the end command is entered and then performs the commands in the loop.

    % [job ] [&]

    Bring the current or indicated job to the foreground. With the ampersand, continue running job in the background.

    @ [var =expr]
    @ [var[n]=expr]

    With no arguments, display the values for all shell variables. With arguments, set the variable var, or the n'th word in the value of var, to the value that expr evaluates to. (If [n] is supplied, both var and its n'th component must already exist.)

    If the expression contains the characters >, <, &, or |, then at least this part of expr must be placed within parentheses.

    The operators *=, +=, and so forth, are available as in C. The space separating the name from the assignment operator is optional. Spaces are, however, mandatory in separating components of expr that would otherwise be single words.

    Special postfix operators, ++ and --, increment or decrement name, respectively.

     

    Environment Variables and Predefined Shell Variables

    Unlike the Bourne shell, the C shell maintains a distinction between environment variables, which are automatically exported to processes it invokes, and shell variables, which are not. Both types of variables are treated similarly under variable substitution. The shell sets the variables argv, cwd, home, path, prompt, shell, and status upon initialization. The shell copies the environment variable USER into the shell variable user, TERM into term, and HOME into home, and copies each back into the respective environment variable whenever the shell variables are reset. PATH and path are similarly handled. You need only set path once in the .cshrc or .login file. The environment variable PWD is set from cwd whenever the latter changes. The following shell variables have predefined meanings:

    argv

    Argument list. Contains the list of command line arguments supplied to the current invocation of the shell. This variable determines the value of the positional parameters $1, $2, and so on.

    cdpath

    Contains a list of directories to be searched by the cd, chdir, and popd commands, if the directory argument each accepts is not a subdirectory of the current directory.

    cwd

    The full pathname of the current directory.

    echo

    Echo commands (after substitutions) just before execution.

    fignore

    A list of filename suffixes to ignore when attempting filename completion. Typically the single word `.o'.

    filec

    Enable filename completion, in which case the Control-d character EOT and the ESC character have special significance when typed in at the end of a terminal input line:

    EOT

    Print a list of all filenames that start with the preceding string.

    ESC

    Replace the preceding string with the longest unambiguous extension.

    hardpaths

    If set, pathnames in the directory stack are resolved to contain no symbolic-link components.

    histchars

    A two-character string. The first character replaces ! as the history-substitution character. The second replaces the carat (^) for quick substitutions.

    history

    The number of lines saved in the history list. A very large number can use up all of the C shell's memory. If not set, the C shell saves only the most recent command.

    home

    The user's home directory. The filename expansion of ~ refers to the value of this variable.

    ignoreeof

    If set, the shell ignores EOF from terminals. This protects against accidentally killing a C shell by typing a Control-d.

    mail

    A list of files where the C shell checks for mail. If the first word of the value is a number, it specifies a mail checking interval in seconds (default 5 minutes).

    nobeep

    Suppress the bell during command completion when asking the C shell to extend an ambiguous filename.

    noclobber

    Restrict output redirection so that existing files are not destroyed by accident. > redirections can only be made to new files. >> redirections can only be made to existing files.

    noglob

    Inhibit filename substitution. This is most useful in shell scripts once filenames (if any) are obtained and no further expansion is desired.

    nonomatch

    Return the filename substitution pattern, rather than an error, if the pattern is not matched. Malformed patterns still result in errors.

    notify

    If set, the shell notifies you immediately as jobs are completed, rather than waiting until just before issuing a prompt.

    path

    The list of directories in which to search for commands. path is initialized from the environment variable PATH, which the C shell updates whenever path changes. A null word ('') specifies the current directory. The default is typically (/usr/bin .). One can override this initial search path upon csh start-up by setting it in .cshrc or .login (for login shells only). If path becomes unset, only full pathnames execute. An interactive C shell normally hashes the contents of the directories listed after reading .cshrc, and whenever path is reset. If new commands are added, use the rehash command to update the table.

    prompt

    The string an interactive C shell prompts with. Noninteractive shells leave the prompt variable unset. Aliases and other commands in the .cshrc file that are only useful interactively, can be placed after the following test: `if ($?prompt == 0) exit', to reduce startup time for noninteractive shells. A ! in the prompt string is replaced by the current event number. The default prompt is hostname% for mere mortals, or hostname# for the privileged user.

    The setting of $prompt has three meanings:

    $prompt not set

    non-interactive shell, test $?prompt.

    $prompt set but == ""

    .cshrc called by the which(1) command.

    $prompt set and != ""

    normal interactive shell.

    savehist

    The number of lines from the history list that are saved in ~/.history when the user logs out. Large values for savehist slow down the C shell during startup.

    shell

    The file in which the C shell resides. This is used in forking shells to interpret files that have execute bits set, but that are not executable by the system.

    status

    The status returned by the most recent command. If that command terminated abnormally, 0200 is added to the status. Built-in commands that fail return exit status 1; all other built-in commands set status to 0.

    time

    Control automatic timing of commands. Can be supplied with one or two values. The first is the reporting threshold in CPU seconds. The second is a string of tags and text indicating which resources to report on. A tag is a percent sign (%) followed by a single upper-case letter (unrecognized tags print as text):

    %D

    Average amount of unshared data space used in Kilobytes.

    %E

    Elapsed (wallclock) time for the command.

    %F

    Page faults.

    %I

    Number of block input operations.

    %K

    Average amount of unshared stack space used in Kilobytes.

    %M

    Maximum real memory used during execution of the process.

    %O

    Number of block output operations.

    %P

    Total CPU time --- U (user) plus S (system) --- as a percentage of E (elapsed) time.

    %S

    Number of seconds of CPU time consumed by the kernel on behalf of the user's process.

    %U

    Number of seconds of CPU time devoted to the user's process.

    %W

    Number of swaps.

    %X

    Average amount of shared memory used in Kilobytes.

    The default summary display outputs from the %U, %S, %E, %P, %X, %D, %I, %O, %F, and %W tags, in that order.

    verbose

    Display each command after history substitution takes place.

     

    Large File Behavior

    See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of csh when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte (2^31 bytes).  

    FILES

    ~/.cshrc

    Read at beginning of execution by each shell.

    ~/.login

    Read by login shells after .cshrc at login.

    ~/.logout

    Read by login shells at logout.

    ~/.history

    Saved history for use at next login.

    /usr/bin/sh

    The Bourne shell, for shell scripts not starting with a `#'.

    /tmp/sh*

    Temporary file for `<<'.

    /etc/passwd

    Source of home directories for `~name'.

    DIAGNOSTICS

    You have stopped jobs.

    You attempted to exit the C shell with stopped jobs under job control. An immediate second attempt to exit succeeds, terminating the stopped jobs.

     

    WARNINGS

    The use of setuid shell scripts is strongly discouraged.  

    NOTES

    Words can be no longer than 1024 bytes. The system limits argument lists to 1,048,576 bytes. However, the maximum number of arguments to a command for which filename expansion applies is 1706. Command substitutions can expand to no more characters than are allowed in the argument list. To detect looping, the shell restricts the number of alias substitutions on a single line to 20.

    When a command is restarted from a stop, the shell prints the directory it started in if this is different from the current directory; this can be misleading (that is, wrong) as the job might have changed directories internally.

    Shell built-in functions are not stoppable/restartable. Command sequences of the form a b c are also not handled gracefully when stopping is attempted. If you suspend b, the shell never executes c. This is especially noticeable if the expansion results from an alias. It can be avoided by placing the sequence in parentheses to force it into a subshell.

    Commands within loops, prompted for by ?, are not placed in the history list.

    Control structures should be parsed rather than being recognized as built-in commands. This would allow control commands to be placed anywhere, to be combined with |, and to be used with & and ; metasyntax.

    It should be possible to use the : modifiers on the output of command substitutions. There are two problems with : modifier usage on variable substitutions: not all of the modifiers are available, and only one modifier per substitution is allowed.

    The g (global) flag in history substitutions applies only to the first match in each word, rather than all matches in all words. The common text editors consistently do the latter when given the g flag in a substitution command.

    Quoting conventions are confusing. Overriding the escape character to force variable substitutions within double quotes is counterintuitive and inconsistent with the Bourne shell.

    Symbolic links can fool the shell. Setting the hardpaths variable alleviates this.

    It is up to the user to manually remove all duplicate pathnames accrued from using built-in commands as

    set path = pathnames
    

    or

    setenv PATH = pathnames
    

    more than once. These often occur because a shell script or a .cshrc file does something like

    `set path=(/usr/local /usr/hosts $path)'
    

    to ensure that the named directories are in the pathname list.

    The only way to direct the standard output and standard error separately is by invoking a subshell, as follows:

    command > outfile ) >& errorfile
    

    Although robust enough for general use, adventures into the esoteric periphery of the C shell can reveal unexpected quirks.

    If you start csh as a login shell and you do not have a .login in your home directory, then the csh reads in the /etc/.login.

    When the shell executes a shell script that attempts to execute a non-existent command interpreter, the shell returns an erroneous diagnostic message that the shell script file does not exist.  

    BUGS

    As of this writing, the time built-in command does not compute the last 6 fields of output, rendering the output to erroneously report the value 0 for these fields:

    example %time ls -R
           9.0u 11.0s 3:32 10% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
