I'm a contributor to mozilla.org and I'd like to add a feature to
WinCVS, if it isn't there yet.

The feature I need is:

be able to issue arbitrary commands to the CVS command line dialog, not
just invoke CVS.  Specifically, I need this to facilitate my development 
at mozilla.org.  Mozilla uses Makefiles to automatically pull the source 
code, so you do something like this:

nmake -f client.mak pull_all

And this will issue the right CVS commands to pull the right branch of
mozilla and whatever other components are needed.  

However, I can't do this at my site since I have to use WinCVS running
through SocksCap32 due to firewall issues.  Thus, I'd like to be able to 
pull up the Command Line dialog and enter 

nmake -f client.mak pull_all and have the CVS commands be Socksified
(since I'm running through SocksCap32).

I'm fully willing to implement this feature, I'm checking out a
WinCvsSrc tree right now.  What is the current branch for the cvs-1.10
folder?

Thanks,

Ed
