Well, let's not start the 'which shell is better' debate. Many people think

This is an entertaining read, but most issues discussed there do not
apply for 'tcsh'. That being said, bash seems to be the standard linux shell 
though
some distribution still may make 'tcsh' a user (not root) default shell.
(Slackware used to do it some 9 years ago when I used it last time.)
