System name:		bill-the-cat
Type and version:	RTPC-ROMPC 7.4G (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		apa16

What were you trying to do?
Read the man page for csh(1).

What's wrong:
It says:
     setenv
     setenv name value
     setenv name
          The first form lists all current environment variables.
          The last form sets the value of environment variable
          name to be value, a single string.  The second form
          sets name to an empty string.  The most commonly used
          environment variable USER, TERM, and PATH are automati-
          cally imported to and exported from the csh variables
          user, term, and path; there is no need to use setenv
          for these.

What should have happened:
The words "last" and "second" should be switched.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
CSH(1)
