Help required in executing a shell script to check out files from RCS to a local directory

[Kalyan rangabhatala]

Hi,
I want to checkout files from RCS on to my local machine and then create a
tar file for all extracted files. For this i have two shell scripts. In the
first I have included all the check out commands for the files I want to
check out. In the other shell script i am specifying the folder on my local
drive and calling the previous shell script. Now how can I link the folders
on RCS to my home directory on the local machine?
regards,
KR
