I am not expert in CVS (translation, I just printed out the manual this morning) but it seems that it is command line driven. Do I sign on to a Gimp CVS server somewhere using telnet? If so what is the address etc.? As I say I am a total babe in the woods with CVS. I do have a CVS program suite on my (Linux Slackware 10.1) system but don't know how to twist the wires together to make the initial interface between my system and the remote system. Remember, I am the guy who sat through my first mainframe training class looking for the diagram that showed the hardware peripheral called the "assembler." On the last day it dawned on me that the "assembler" was really a program. So assume gross stupidity. -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
