That is a shell question, not a CVS question.  For reasonable shells,
all you have to do is quote the string:

        cvs import -m"This is
        a multiline
        message" mymod vend rel

-Larry Jones

Something COULD happen today.  And if anything DOES,
by golly, I'm going to be ready for it! -- Calvin
