Well, yes; but "he who?"  If you read carefully the message
below, you see that I was replying to Arek Czereszewski (hope
I spelled that correctly) who stated that "Command set
VARIABLE work in t/csh".

I was simply noting the truth that in csh/tcsh, you have
to "setenv" ... as you see from the example, "set" doesn't
work here (in tcsh)... :-)
