The CVS client is responsible for converting between the canonical line ending used in the repository and the local system's line ending (for text files). "That CVS" is a Windows client and the Windows line ending convention is <CR><LF>. If you're pretending you're not really using Windows and want a different line ending convention, then you need a different CVS client that supports that environment. -Larry Jones Let's pretend I already feel terrible about it, and that you don't need to rub it in any more. -- Calvin
