SOURCE(1CSH)            COMMAND REFERENCE            SOURCE(1CSH)



NAME
     source - execute commands from file (csh built-in)

SYNOPSIS
     source [ -h ] filename

DESCRIPTION
     The source command reads commands from filename and executes
     them (unless -h is given) in the current shell.  Source
     commands may be nested, but if they are nested too deeply,
     the shell will run out of file descriptors.  An error in a
     source at any level terminates all nested source commands.
     Input to source commands is not added to the history list
     when executed.

OPTIONS
     -h Add the commands to the history list instead of executing
        them.

EXAMPLES
     The following command line reads commands from the file
     `mycmds' and places them in the history list of the current
     shell.

          source -h mycmds

RETURN VALUE
     The return value is the value returned by the last command
     executed, or 1 if the file does not exist.
