That's interesting. I'm not sure what I did yesterday, but now (on Solaris 11), I do get an error:
It's the only version of Solaris I have, but it does have the same version of TCSH (6.17.00) as my RHEL and both give the error. So perhaps it's a "problem" with this version of TSCH (as opposed to 6.12.00 you have on Solaris), or a problem with TCSH on this version (11) of Solaris.
edit: Ah, it seems yesterday, I may have been using CSH, not TCSH. CSH doesn't give the error on Solaris 11, but it still doesn't return an Octal number

Hi,
I type in my shell:
set prompt="(%M) %c%b%# "
to get something like:

this works, but only partially.
every time I move to to a different directory (i.e. 'cd <some dir>'), the prompt is reset. Meaning, when I 'echo $prompt' after setting the prompt I get the correct prompt,... (8 Replies)
