Hello everyone,

how can I access .cshrc file in my home directory? I need to modify it to adjust my environment. I assume this file is present, but when I try "pico .cshrc" there is nothing there! I also tried searching for it in all hidden files and still nothing. Oh, yeah, it is a school machine, so they do assume that it is present.

Thanks in advance.

a) i don't know 'piko'
b) .cshrc is the initializing file (rc = run cmd) for the csh
normally resides in the user home dir, when not there create it
pay attention on syntax, csh never was a good scripting shell
sure you will find a lot of templates.

First make sure you're using csh or tcsh as your shell. Won't do you any good to edit $HOME/.cshrc, if you're using bash as your shell .

.cshrc and .login may or may not be present in your home directory. If they are not present, you should simply create
them (with the appropriate permissions) and the C shell
will use them.
