I need help changing shells; I use the "chsh -s --/bin/csh" command. Bash tells me the it is changing shells, but the tells me I need to use the full path name. I thought /bin/csh was the full path name. /bin/csh is in the etc/shells file. In addition, I am having trouble finding the file/script the determines the colors displayed in the Gnome terminal emulator (i.e., blue=dir, no color=file, etc.) And last but not least, Does any one know where I can get information regarding the use of Netscape Messenger. I was an Outlook die hard and need help fast!
