A colleague of mine recently wanted to install CVS version of Emacs. After googling for "GNU emacs CVS", the second link was:
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/faq2.html which said for install of CVS: The following commands should checkout the current version of the source: c:\>cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/emacs login c:\>cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/emacs checkout emacs On a Unix machine, after typing the first "login" command, and giving an empty password, the command does not end; it has to be aborted. Do these instructions need updating? I note on subversions the command given is: cvs -z3 -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/emacs co emacs Is that appropriate for the windows platform too? Listing a command that works on both windows and unix would be better for the faq.
