Again, I would strongly recommend that you put CVS out of your mind for life. Use subversion for real projects, RCS for simple applications. CVS belongs in the ash heap with SCCS. RCS and a simple cron script can do a good enough job of automatically backing up a set of files. I'll share the script I use when I get back to work Monday if you want.
