The "stty -echo" won't work found in the New Csh with tenex-like file name and command completion which was posted in the net by Ken Greer about 2 months ago. If anyone in the net has a fix please post to the net since it is public domain. _Dennis Chen, ittvax!qumix!dennis

That's not a bug, it's a V-GER! Really, the tcsh thinks it's simpler to always echo, then it has last work to figure out how to wipe out the echo of the escape, and all that. Anyway, if you want to turn off echo for the execution of a particular program, the sequence % stty -echo ; prog will always work. =Spencer

This is deliberately disabled. To fix, find the line in routine setup_tty
(tenex.c) which says
sgtty.sg_flags |= ECHO;
and comment it out. This makes the shell look pretty dumb when it does
a command completion, and all you see is what it supplys...
