But i need other solution apart from using cat command

You can just use a for loop and print the file as many times you want. Like this:

Code:

for i in {1..5} ; do echo hello ; done

Sorry didn't see that you want that for csh .
here is one :

Code:

@ i = 1
while ($i <= 5)
  echo TOTO
  @ i += 1
end
