Consider using ksh in favor of csh. Here's a rant about csh:

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/shell/csh-whynot/

you decide.

#1 - don't know

#2 - parameters are $1 --- $9 $0 is the command that started the script. $# is the number of arguments.

Something like:

Code:
echo "Content-Type: text/plain\n\n"
env

Should work.

However, on my OpenBSD machine, csh's built-in for echo doesn't seem to handle '\n' properly. So read the manpage for your csh to find out how to display new lines.

NOTE:
The 'env' command may not be a built-in command.
