No.  Just the ones that are also covered by environment variables. ;-)

Seriously, though, I think the point is that setting an environment
variable is a sufficiently elegant solution for the problem covered by
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS (not, mind you, for *every* switch/option out there)
and that, if you don't like typing it all out, there already exist
perfectly useful ways (e.g., alias) to make things easier on yourself.

[first ducks, then answers...]

Well, if you prefer, you could learn about alias from "man tcsh" ;-)
