Does an 8-bit clean csh (or tcsh) exist ?
If it does, where and how could I get the sources ?
Thanks in advance.

tcsh-5.18 is eight-bit clean. You can get the diffs relative to 4.3BSD csh
by anonymous ftp from, for example,
tesla.ee.cornell.edu
Although this version is very nice, there is one thing I as a user of
the ISO 8859 character set do not like about it: it does not print eight
bit characters as they are, instead it strips them down to ASCII and prints
them in "stand-out mode" (e.g. reverse video).
I have made a small patch to fix this, I hope I can get this integrated
into a future version (the old behaviour is still available by toggling a
shell variable).
I have put up this small patch to tcsh for anonymous ftp on:

SunOS 4.1's "csh" is 8-bit clean (modulo bugs); System V Release 4's is based on it, and as such should be 8-bit clean as well. >If it does, where and how could I get the sources ? From Sun or AT&T. I don't know if the changes were sent back to Berkeley or not; the intent was, at least at one point, to do so.
