Here is the contents of the readme file that is supposed to be at 
/usr/share/tcsh/examples:

This directory contains some useful tcsh files.

In order to use this configuration:

	echo "source /usr/share/tcsh/examples/rc"     > ~/.tcshrc
	echo "source /usr/share/tcsh/examples/login"  > ~/.login
	echo "source /usr/share/tcsh/examples/logout" > ~/.logout

To do this system-wide, do the same instead to /etc/csh.cshrc, 
/etc/csh.login, and /etc/csh.logout.

In order to customize tcsh:

	mkdir ~/Library/init/tcsh

and create the following files there as necessary:

	aliases.mine		- shell aliases
	completions.mine	- completions
	environment.mine	- environment
	rc.mine			- run commands
	path			- command search path

See the corresponding file in /usr/share/init/tcsh for more information 
about the role of each file. You can easily extend or override the 
configuration provided by the default file. For example, you can add 
more aliases by adding the appropriate commands in aliases.mine.

In the Terminal, I did the three "echo" commands.  This created the 
three files ".tcshrc", ".login" and ".logout" in my home directory, 
each containing the line given in the echo command.

This did the job for me and in addition restored the defaults aliases 
that I got accustomed to in Os X 10.15.

Hope this helps.
