System name: pit-manager
What's wrong:
The beginning of the csh(1) man page says:
SYNOPSIS
csh [ -cefinstvVxX ] [ arg ... ]
However, later on in the man page it says:
-b This flag forces a ``break'' from option processing,
causing any further shell arguments to be treated as
non-option arguments. The remaining arguments will not
be interpreted as shell options. This may be used to
pass options to a shell script without confusion or
possible subterfuge. The shell will not run a set-user
ID script without this option.
What should have happened:
The SYNOPSIS should mention the -b flag.
