I am having a problem when I source a shell script which sources another
shell script which contains a foreach loop which contains a big switch
statement. I think this effects other tcsh versions as well ( such as
6.08 ).
I have attached 2 files which should reproduce the problem. Type: source
file1.tcsh to reproduce it. All the first file does is source the second
file, and it causes a problem, but if you source the second file directly it
works fine. Also if you remove any of the echo statements from the second
file it will work fine, which tends to surgest its the size of the foreach +
switch statement.
If I run with the tcsh -x option it produces the following output.
> source file1.tcsh
source file1.tcsh
source file2.tcsh
set vqaargs = ( 8_0 9_0 10_0 )
foreach vqaarg ( 8_0 9_0 10_0 )
switch ( 8_0 )
echo 8
8
breaksw
end
Too many )'s.
I have reproduced this on two NT4 SP6a machines and two Win2k ( one with
SP1 ) machines.

Grasping for straws, what is you SHELL environment variable set to?

Hi
Thanks a lot,,, fairly obvious now you come to mention it,,, easily solved
with use of 'tr'.
When Corinna said in the release notes of tcsh 6.10;
"It's a test version due to the freshly integrated support for
textmode files on binary mounts."
What exactly was ment by support for textmode files ?

No. Well I hadn't. Your problem stems from the infamous DOS style line
endings. Remove the \r's and it works.

The 'SHELL' environment variable isn't set to anything, however the 'shell'
environment variable is set to:
/usr/bin/tcsh
If you need to know anything else, let me know, although I don't think its
an environment issue.
Have you tried to reproduce the problem with the two files ? ( Just wanted
someone else to confirm the problem to make sure I am not going totally mad
:-)
