running a couple of days behind here but ...

are there reasons for your personal bias?  i definately agree with using
ssh for connecting to hosts (auto setting of display variable, encryption,
encrypted tunnelling of x sessions, rsa authentications etc etc).

is is there really any advantage to using bash over tcsh?

i use tcsh because it's what i learned first and now it's familiar... but
i've been looking for a reason to be bothered swapping over to bash.

can you convince me?  :)
