tcsh script: quote and spaces problems

[Michael E. Mercer]

ok ok... I noticed one thing while playing with this...

the script hello.sh
#!/bin/tcsh -f

set JUNK='-f "t  "'

echo ">>${JUNK}<<"
echo ">>"${JUNK}"<<"

The first echo prints it -f "t  "
and the second -f "t "

Can you use it with the double quotes around it?

later
