Ok, I spent all freaking day last saturday trying to figure out 
the CVS. I will volunteer to write the CVS howto. Who better to 
write it than a CVS beginner still smarting from the delimma of
reading all day and still having no clue.    (:

My plan is to write it and submit it on this list for any corrections
or suggestions. I can't host it because I don't allow ftp from my
machine (security reasons you know). But I will be glad to put the
fingers to the keyboard in an effort to make CVS as simple as humanly
possible for the CLueless, yours truly included.

BTW. Once I figured it out and got everything downloaded, it built
and ran fine.   (: 

Thanks to all who helped.

Larry
