I couldn't get how to compose a string in a csh script.

set STR1 = "text1"
set STR2 = "text2"

How to compose a string which has STR1 appended to STR2 ?

I tried:

set STR3=`echo $STR1$STR2`

its not workin...syntax error...but typing

echo $STR1$STR2

Thankz in advance

Try this,

#!/bin/csh

set a = 123
set b = abc
set c = `printf "%s%s" $a $b`
echo $c

It should be showing up in the middle of the content pane, just below the first table box. (set by .css) Here's...
