We use NIS and I have my shell set to /bin/csh since it
works fine on FreeBSD which is most of the machines I use.
I initially tried app-shells/csh on gentoo but it's no good,
the arrow keys don't work for command recall and editing.
app-shells/ccsh seems to be a script interpreter only, not
an interactive shell.
app-shells/tcsh does some very strange things when I first
log in:

(the client is PuTTY but it does the same in xterm) Not quite
sure what that's supposed to do!
Also if I do an ls -l, it all comes out in strange colours!
I'd much rather have mono, thanks very much, and I've set my
colour choice (yellow on black) and I'd really rather not have
anything else! Especially blue on black for directories, which
is unreadable.
Is there a plain ordinary csh like the FreeBSD one which lets
me use the arrow keys but doesn't do all the other stuff?
