Ron, You're welcome. After I read your note, I used bash to run a "hello" program that lived in my home directory. Since that directory was, and is still, in my path, I didn't need to type "./hello" when I ran the program. By the way, I usually use tcsh instead of bash, so I invoked bash when tcsh when I got tcsh's command prompt.
