I tend to think this is a bug in csh, but I may be wrong. In any case
it doesn't work. If your "term" variable is not set then the default
athena .chsrc will fail. This problem has been biting people when they
use xdm, which has no terminal, and therefore does not set the term variable.

---------------- Offending line ----------------------
if ($?term && $term =~ xterm*) then
alias xresize 'set noglob; eval `resize` || unset noglob'
endif
---------------- This works -------------------------
if ( $?term ) then
if ($term =~ xterm*) then
alias xresize 'set noglob; eval `resize` || unset noglob'
endif
endif
