I do realize that.

Maybe it is, but I think it's better than trying to learn CVS the other way. Once you understand CVS itself, there are any number of front-ends (WinCVS, emacs vc and pcl-cvs modes, something that integrates with the windows file browser - I forget the name) that you can use and will make total sense. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
