Guess what - I spoke (or wrote) too soon.
when I loaded Matt's files and did a ./run.64step378 I got an error
message:-

'nknown option: '-
Usage: csh [ -bcdefilmnqrstvVxX] [arguement....]

(this is exactly as it came up on screen - several times, even after a
reset - the ' at the beginning isn't a typo)

I looked in /bin and I have csh there - if I do csh as a command line
command it does something and gives me the prompt back but if I do " csh
-f " it gives me the message as above. If I do " cat
/usr/local/nist/emc/run.64step378 | more " it prints out loads of
gobbledygook - presumably running something and then denies the
existence of " more " (although that is still in the /bin directory) but
I can look at the code with " less ".
I checked that the " #!csh -f " command was on the first line both using
" less " and "emacs " and it appears to be so. - any ideas?
