I am not csh programmer. I use ksh or bash for everything. But I'll take a stab at this. The only thing I see with the script is the superfluous but harmless semi-colons on those set statements. But I would code it differently to simplify the script...
Code:
#! /bin/csh -f
while ( ! -e somefile )
echo file not found -- sleeping
sleep 10
end
source file2
exit 0
and then a test run...
Code:
$ ./sleeper
file not found -- sleeping
file not found -- sleeping
file not found -- sleeping
hello
I am file2

In another window I typed "touch somefile" to get out of the loop.

script
script(1) User Commands script(1)NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
ATTRIBUTES

script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
