Re: Ansi.sys

The "trick" with the "tee" tool works under the bash shell, as well
as tcsh.

Directory sytax under either of the shells looks like

g:/gnat/Examples

One of my reasons for using tcsh is the fact that it provides command
line completion by pressing the TAB key.  Another reason is that I
prefer its syntax when writing shell scripts.

One of the places tcsh can be found is
