Code Tcsh Shell trouble
Need assistance in getting a solution for a TCSH shell environment variable .
I read on internet that leading zeros as octal numbers and redhat doesnt supports octals but Solaris works on TCSH shell. Is there any way we can fix this . All my script has 08 or 09

Code:
$ @ x = 5 + 08
@: Badly formed number.

Code:
$ @ x = 5 + 8
$

Tcsh version on redhat
Code:
$ /bin/tcsh --version
tcsh 6.17.00 (Astron) 2009-07-10 (x86_64-unknown-linux) options wide,nls,dl,al,kan,sm,rh,color,filec


On Solaris box the tcsh version doesnt through this error
Code:
$ tcsh --version
tcsh 6.12.00 (Astron) 2002-07-23 (sparc-sun-solaris) options 8b,nls,dl,al,kan,rh,color,dspm,filec

NAME

       CPANPLUS::Shell - base class for CPANPLUS shells

SYNOPSIS

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell; 	    # load the shell indicated by your
					    # config -- defaults to
					    # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic]  # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic;

DESCRIPTION

       This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS"
       shell.

       Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic
       loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
