Hi, There has been a bug with tcsh and the writing of non-latin1 scripts for some time now. http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89549 proposes a fix which probably fixes the issue. Could you please test it out so that the change takes place? It will be good to get this one out as it was first mentioned back in RH 7.1... simos
