Ok, another possibility eliminated.

I don't get 'Command not found' just a additional '~' on the shell prompt.

So I assume I have it and which tcsh produces:

I followed these steps anyway but the installation was not needed.

As I am only (currently) using redhat for poplog. I have nothing of any
importance to restore should I take the above steps. So perhaps not too
drastic?

I didn't try install with motif again as my system has not changed.

Ok Aaron, if you could supply the steps for me to do this that would be
great. Alternatively I could start afresh with a "fully loaded" redhat
system.

Finally heres the printout (I couldn't supply before) of the libraries I
have just in case I missed something important.
