Hi, for moment I removed cvsnt and put back cvs. Because I use smartcvs ans client this actually comes to be transparent.

However some RCS parsers are very inflexible with regards to the exact format, especially the parsing of new keywords, of which we use several. As Arthur said in this case it's best to use the cvsnt rcs wrappers to parse the file, which will always give you the correct result. Ideally don't use tools that try to parse the RCS files directly as these are prone to breakage.
