Thanks for making that more clear Spencer, this is indeed what is
happening. 

When I open a file which is under CVS control (i.e. there is a CVS
subdirectory), some files become read-only.  This appears to be
associated with file locking which should be disabled by default for
CVS.

Since there are easy work-arounds, it is only a minor inconvenience, but
if anyone has an idea why file locking is enabled it might be useful to
know. I'm afraid my ignorance prevents me from understanding this issue
more completely.

Regards,

Matt

P.S. - Tramp rules!!! Thanks for all the great work.
