backward-char LEFT arrow
beginning-of-line CTRL+A

Use the TAB key when you do not know what to do or to avoid unnecessary typing as well as probable typos in long names. This prompting is very convenient and is consistent with the tcsh UNIX shell. It will not only prompt you for possible completions, but also prompt you for available files in the read command (hit TAB after the double quote mark) and available selection of items in preference .
Examples: 
 
  show Ic TAB      # completes function name IcmSequence() 
  read pdb "TAB    # gives you all local *.pdb *.brk files 
  read sequence "1a TAB  # lists 1a*.seq files
