Why in God's name are there no decent shells included in the 
standard FreeBSD distribution.  What idiot would use csh or sh.
Everybody knows it all bash and tcsh these days.  Of course 
getting the port is simple enough, but even that is very painful 
with no command history and no filename completion.  Ha, csh
what kind of shit is that.  Get with the program FreeBSD.
