in my ~/ I have these files:
.cshrc
.login
.logout
.tcsh_history
.tcshrc
.xinitrc
My question is: what is what? I (think I) know that .tcshrc sets the preferences for Terminal.app, and .xinitrc sets the preferences for X11's terminal . . .
My .tcsh is set to "source /usr/share/tcsh/examples/rc" thanks to a tip from macoshints.com. but what is the file "/usr/share/tcsh/examples/rc" doing for me? should I roll my own?
there are also .*rc files in ~/Library/init/tcsh/ and /etc (i think) what are those doing for me?
also, a lot of people talk about their .cshrc, why do you use csh instead of the default tcsh?
I do not want to start a flame war, but is tcsh the best to use since it is the Apple default?
