Ivan,
I assume you use a Mac from the look of the icons. If you use Windows,
stop reading here :-)-O
What happens if you try something like
ci -l Title.lyx
from a command line?
Or even better
ci -u -i -t-"Register" "Title.lyx"
(leave the -q out)
Does a file
Title.lyx,v
already exist?
I have been using RCS on the mac for many years, and for a single user
it is perfectly sufficient. On the Mac it was included in the past, but
now (Mojave) has to install it manually from something like Homebrew.
What does
realpath $(which ci)
return?
Homebrew would return something like
/usr/local/Cellar/rcs/5.9.4_1/bin/ci
For collaboration something like GIT or SVN is much better, but the
required setup effort is also bigger.
greetings, el
