Set Anaconda as default Python in .tcshrc file

On the advice of my supervisor, I switched my shell over from bash to tcsh. However, I'm having trouble getting my Anaconda install to set to be the default python in tcsh as it was in bash.

I need to know the .tcshrc equivalent of

export PATH="/home/george/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"

which the Anaconda installer automatically placed in my .bashrc file. I have searched for ages on Google for the right syntax, but whatever I enter in the .tcshrc file doesn't seem to work for me.

This is the equivalent in the .cshrc file:

set path = (/home/georg/anaconda3/bin $path)

To set the PATH for a C Shell(tcsh) you would need to set it with the following syntax:

setenv PATH $PATH\:<path to anaconda/bin>

By default Anaconda would store it in Linux under:

/home/username/anaconda/bin

Mac OS X:

/Users/username/anaconda/bin

Windows:

C:\Users\username\Anaconda

C:\Users\username\Anaconda\Scripts

EDIT: To make this persistent in Mac OS X I created ~/.login and added the above command.
