Description
The tsch instructions could suggest adding csh and tcsh to /etc/shells.
Also I think it should be installed in /bin, not /usr/bin configured: ./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/bin and linked: ln -s tcsh /bin/csh
so then, one would add /bin/csh and /bin/tcsh to /etc/shells

The FHS says the link can be to /usr/bin/tcsh or /bin/tcsh. Doesn't matter, I suppose. Adding --bindir isn't that big of a deal.
