No, that overstates the case. The reality is that CVS commands *that take the name of files/directories in the repository* will treat mname as if the aliases had been specified instead. The catch is that most CVS commands take *local* files/directories rather than repository files/directories. Basically, it works for checkout and the various r* commands (rdiff, rlog, etc.). -Larry Jones Summer vacation started!
