 652807 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root     bin        477692 Mar 21  2000 bash*
 652860 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root     bin        306453 Apr  7  2000 tcsh*
 652861 lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            4 Apr  5  2001 csh -> tcsh*
 652879 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root     bin         59628 Aug  3  1999 ash*
 652882 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root     bin        338536 Jun 14  2000 zsh*
 653126 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root     root           30 Oct  4  2001 rbash*
$ uname
Linux

I'm using 95% of the time FreeBSD and OpenBSD, and I said this because Linux uses bash, and AFAIK csh is linked to bash, and in the same time csh on FreeBSD is tcsh.
