Lots of little differences between all the various shells, but bash 
seems to have the most useful doodads for interractive use. It's the 
default shell on most Linux distros too.  Here's a nice little summary 
comparing the most popular shells I just found:

that made me wonder too

Hmmm.  Dunno.


Try making the file executable, by running chmod on it:
robfitzs% chmod 755 radcollisions.csh


Thanks Mark and Rob - had to do both chmod and re-do the line breaks

Not sure if this conflict is your problem, though.  Are you saying this 
error started appearing only after you upgraded to Panther?

Yes - had no problem when using rad  in 10.1.5 with the X11 I got from
XFree86
