If you are not too worried a few odd merge conflicts, you could always add the $Revision$ or $Id$ keywords to a comment in your source code and the write the canonical 5 lines of Perl to snag the revision number from the file. Or use ident (which is part of RCS) to do that for you. Check: <url:http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/current/cvs_12.html#SEC98> for all the gory details. - Rob _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
