Re: Are there any plans for more readable, modern syntaxes for If statements?

No, I haven't. I looked at the various documentations of tcsh and couldn't
see any real improvements in syntax from a standard bash.
I can't even see a reason to use tcsh instead of bash, as an average of
bash. Syntaxes are the same or almost the same and horrible to read.
