P.P.S. - I see there's a proposed project to improve 'svn help'. This is also something I might be well-suited to do, with a little guidance about where to put things. Btw the link to the main source code file of the svn binary, as described on the Subversion OPW page, is broken: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/subversion/svn/main.c .
Hope to hear from you soon! Thanks!
