Are you serious? The script is in tcsh? I didn't think there was
anyone on the planet who still writes scripts in tcsh - in fact, even
back in the late 80's when I used tcsh as my login shell, it was well
known to be a crappy shell for scripting! Then again, I'm even
serprised that Oracle still uses csh for some of their scripts rather
than just sticking to Korn, Bourne/Bourne Again shells.
