Aloha Poly,
I'm glad to have somebody confirm this. I thought it was funny that this
was happening.
I have earlier CURRENT 8 running on a couple of machines and they never
acted this way.
This is root that is doing this on my test box.
set history = 100
set savehistory = 100
are in the .cshrc file.
I'll look in /etc/csh.cshrc
Thanks...
