The following are useful tcsh completions I use, which should mostly be fairly standard for any unix platform, so you can just drop them into place. # directories complete cd 'C/*/d/' complete rmdir 'C/*/d/' complete lsd 'C/*/d/' # signal names # also note that the initial - can be created with the first completion # but without appending a space (note the extra slash with no # append character specified) ...

... NICS will be the only infrared instrument for the first light of the TNG; as a consequence, we decided to incorporate a sufficient degree of operation flexibility by providing the instrument with six different observing modes, three aimed at imaging and three at spectroscopy: . ... It will be possible to use the narrow band filters as order sorters; this will allow to perform high resolution long-slit spectroscopy in the wavelength ranges covered by the available narrow band filters. ...

... The process of proposing for Hubble Space Telescope observing time has been revised, to make it simpler for proposers. We describe the simple, flexible, and robust prototype system created to handle proposal submission. ... Proposing for Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) observing time proceeds in two phases: the scientific merits of the proposal are considered in Phase I; only accepted proposals enter Phase II, where the observations are described in complete detail. ...
