set path issue

Can someone help me to resolve this issue.

setenv PATH $PATH:.:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/atria/bin:/hrdev/release/bin:/hrdev/utils/11.5/linux_bin:/home/viviswan/bin:/usr/atria/bin
Bad : modifier in $ (.).

you should use ':' instead of :
setenv PATH $PATH':'.':'/usr/X11R6/bin':' ....

Great pan, that works but now another issue when I run
source .cshrc
setenv: Too many arguments.

It gives this issue

I assume there is an extra space somewhere in the line, you need to remove it.
