A colon ":" is a modifier in the tcsh for variables.

For instance:
        set f=file.c
        echo $f:r
          --> output: file  [note the missing ".c", only root name]
        echo $f:e
          --> output: c     [note that "file." is missing, only the extension]

So, I assume, you used somewhere a ":/" in the script and "/" is no valid 
modifier.

Maybe you should run the script under a csh [comparable with sh], and not a 
tcsh [comparable with bash]?
csh has no modifiers, but tcsh has.

        Klaus.
