For some reason, the user shell on the SunOS (not in general, just on that particular machine) was mandated to be tcsh, and on the SGI it was bash. Or maybe it was the other way around.
I don't get this. Just because a users shell is tcsh doesn't mean that every shell program needs to be in tcsh - if the top line says #!/usr/bin/sh, it will be run in sh, regardless of the users shell.

The only exception being shells that need to be "sourced" - but you can't write those in Perl anyway (unless your shell is Perl).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
