" Vim syntax file
" Language:		C-shell (tcsh)
" Maintainer:		Gautam Iyer <gi1242@users.sourceforge.net>

" Description: We break up each statement into a "command" and an "end" part.
" All groups are either a "command" or part of the "end" of a statement (ie
" everything after the "command"). This is because blindly highlighting tcsh
" statements as keywords caused way too many false positives. Eg:
"
" 	set history=200
"
" causes history to come up as a keyword, which we want to avoid.

" Quit when a syntax file was already loaded
