Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting foreach loop working in terminal but not in the script Post 302542486 by bflinchum on Wednesday 27th of July 2011 07:21:15 PM

I did the 'whereis csh' and there is only one locate in '/bin/csh' just as it should be. I wrote it on my machine and tried compiling and it wont work. As soon as I move it to the linux cluster it works fine. I don't know what the problem is... it is clearly my machine, I will do some more searching on Apple forums. Thanks a lot!
