When I set my path in the C shell, $path is set, and so is $PATH, even though I am not using the Bourne shell. If you do 'echo $PATH' you get the same stuff as $path with the Bourne Shell syntax. However, I set my terminal type with 'setenv TERM ...' and $TERM is set, but $term is not. What is the difference between these two?
