recursion

I'm using the UNIX csh and i wish to use recursion to nav my way up (or down as it is) a given folder.

My little test script is called "r" and takes a folder as argv[1] (or $1)

#!/bin/tcsh -f
set allFiles = `ls -A $argv[1]`
cd $argv[1]
while ($#allFiles)
if (-d $allFiles[1]) then
echo $allFiles[1]
# do whatever...
r $allFiles[1]
endif
shift allFiles
end

echo done.

however once it chages into a given dir the script "r" is no longer in the new dir and thus the process fails. I'm not the super user so I can not dump the script "r" in "bin". Can anyone help me do something similair?

NAME
avahi-autoipd.action - avahi-autoipd action script SYNOPSIS
/etc/avahi/avahi-autoipd.action DESCRIPTION
avahi-autoipd.action is the action script that is called whenever an IP address has been acquired by avahi-autoipd or when it detected an IP address conflict. The script should add or remove the specified address from the specified network interface. PARAMETERS
argv[1] An event string: one of BIND, CONFLICT, UNBIND or STOP. If BIND is passed an IP address has been sucessfully acquired and the script shall add it to the network interface. If CONFLICT is passed avahi-autopid detected a IP address on the local network, the action script should remove the configured IP address. If UNBIND is passed the IP address should be removed from the interface, too, because a routable address has been configured to the interface by some other program. If STOP is passed the avahi-autoipd is being shutdown and the action script should remove the IP address. In short: on BIND the address should be added to the interface, on CONFLICT, UNBIND or STOP it should be removed. argv[2] The network interface name. argv[3] An IP address from the IPv4LL range.
