# csh does not allow the variable name in a foreach to contain a digit. # For example, foreach a2z (a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) echo $a2z end # produces "foreach: Invalid variable." # It works if both occurrences of "a2z" are changed to "atoz". # The problem exists on a VAX 11/750, a VAX 11/780, # and a SUN Workstation, all running 4.2bsd. # Problem reported by Peter Montgomery of System Development # Corporation in October, 1985. -- Peter Montgomery {aero,allegra,bmcg,burdvax,hplabs, ihnp4,psivax,randvax,sdcsvax,trwrb}!sdcrdcf!sdcsmb!pmontgom Don't blame me for the crowded freeways - I don't drive.
