So, question: unrelated... undocumented... where to find THE rule?
Well, there is no ONE rule. Every shell has its own rules. You said you were running tsch. You can read about it with this command:
man tcsh
Personally, I recommend downloading ManOpen and using that to read man pages. It makes the whole experience much more Mac-like (as much as you can when reading about Unix).
http://www.clindberg.org/projects/ManOpen.html
With this program you do "Open Title" or Command-Shift-O and then type in the man page you want, in this case "tcsh". Case matters.
Then, if you are completely masochistic and want to learn more, read about csh and sh. These are the previous shells that tcsh builds upon. sh is the shell that the "do shell script" command uses.
Of course, after reading these pages, you might come away with a little more appreciation for the AppleScript Language Guide. ;)
