I hope you are wrong - it's downright silly to put csh in with
the compiler and put curses in the basic system.  Curses is useless
without the compiler (but termcap is important.)  csh has nothing
to do with programming and belongs in the basic system with the
other shells.

I've checked my copy of Xenix for the XT and in fact csh comes with
the operating system, curses comes with the development system.  I
hope this remains true for the AT version.
