 csh a poor shell language?
In every book on shell programming I've read, it says that csh makes a poor
shell programming language. What makes it a poor language? Is it some
inherent weakness in the code, or what? I know some bourne shell, some c
shell, and some ksh, and soon some zsh.

Thanks in advance.
