Personally, I dislike csh because it behaves so differently to the bourne 
shell, which is the lowest common denominator on most systems which means 
it would make sense to script for that so that scripts are portable.  I 
dislike scripting in ksh for the same reasons although ksh is more bourne 
shell compatible than csh. 

Not thats bourne shell, not bash.  Although as far as I'm aware bash is 
100% bourne compatible when called as /bin/sh
