Is there a corresponding change I can make to .cshrc?  If not,
please let me know where the database file is.

Another display problem:

I noticed that new text is not automatically displayed at the
end of the display buffer.  For example, if I scroll back and then 
type 'Enter/Return', it displays the command prompt in the bottom
of the currently display page.  It should move back to the end of
buffer, and display the prompt on the next (blank) line.

Thanks for your help.
                                                        --Brad

P.S.: Does any one know of a converter for .cshrc to .zshrc or .bashrc?
I'd like to have one initialization file that I can deploy under multiple
shells.
