Can't run a port right after an install

[Rob]

Assuming tcsh, the command is:

  rehash  Causes  the internal hash table of the contents of the directo-
          ries in the path variable to be recomputed.  This is needed  if
          new  commands  are  added  to directories in path while you are
          logged in.  This should be necessary only if you  add  commands
          to  one  of  your  own  directories, or if a systems programmer
          changes the contents of one of the  system  directories.   Also
          flushes the cache of home directories built by tilde expansion.

Take a few minutes to browse the manpage for tcsh - lots of interesting
stuff.
