[comp.emacs] Script editing mode

Does anyone have a shell script mode, preferably one tailored to csh 
scripts.  Ideally such a mode would:
    1.	Fill lines using a backslash before the newline:
	
	set path = (. /usr/ucb ~/bin ~/bin/sunx ~/bin/sun3 ~/archive \
		    /usr/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/bin/X11 )


    2.  Understand at least the basic control structures (if, while,...)

My biggest priority would probably be correct filling using
backslashes.  I could then use the same mode to edit shell scripts, .*rc
files, Makefiles, etc.
