Problem accessing csh ?? (Newbie)

Hi All,

Just recently started using a program in Unix for a client. I was sent a script to use but for some reason it's not working. The person who created the script first suggested I may need to edit the first line of the script so that it has the correct path for the csh file: #!/bin/csh -f

I checked that the csh file is in /bin and it is, but it's listed as: csh -> tcsh*
What does that mean?

When I run the script I get this message:
'nknown option: `-
Usage: csh [ -bcdefilmnqstvVxX ] [ argument ... ].

I'm new to Unix & would appreciate any help-
Thanks in advance!
