Limitations
A shell is a very complicated application by itself. lstcsh has certain limitations:
Native language system
Native Language System is not supported. To use this feature of the tcsh, you must
compile
tcsh with SHORT_STRINGS defined. This causes complications for
characters flowing across machines.
Shell variables
Shell variables are not propagated across machines. When you set a shell variable locally,
then run a command remotely, the remote shell will not see that shell variable. Only
environment variables are automatically propagated.
fg command
The fg command for remote jobs must use @, as shown by examples in “Task Control”
on page 633.
tcsh version
lstcsh is based on tcsh 6.03 (7 bit mode). It does not support the new features of
the latest
tcsh.
