That's a good idea, but I don't feel that it's quite appropriate in this case. The Perl LibCVS is intended to be useful for writing such tools, and it will be included as an example there. Furthermore, the Perl LibCVS is quite a lot of code, since it implements the cvsclient protocol. Alex -- http://libcvs.cvshome.org/ Access CVS through a library.
