.cshrc(C Shell run commands) A {C Shell} startup configuration file. This file is found in a user's {home directory} and can contain shell and other commands to set variables, define aliases, and perform any other initialisation which should happen for every shell (as opposed to {.login} which is only run for a {login shell}). Compare {AUTOEXEC.BAT} on {MS-DOS}. See also {rc}. (1996-04-09)
