"Sounds idyllic" Well it's reality for me. Guess it depends on your project

Jake, yes he is referring to a specific CVS, apparently the one he uses. Do
you want a program that you can run from a command line, or do you want a

OK, I still feel like I'm in over my head.

Are you referring to a specific program? Is there a server component and

I know about as much as the term CVS...otherwise, I'm a total newbie...
