I definintely can trust the developers, and would do that, but unfortunately some of the IDE's use the -n option on their own sometimes. My specific example is Jalindi Igloo, which we are using with MS Visual C++. It is a great tool, but sometimes it uses the -n option....thus bypassing my scripts. I am hoping that CVS integration with some of our other IDE's (Borland JBuilder, Forte, Websphere, et. al.) don't also use this option... If they do, I may have to try to modify the source... Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated though!!
