You can probably do something similar with other CVS.
Philippe Thanks for you advice as I mentioned in the other post I've
been corrected CVS is probably the correct tool for the job. I'll
take your advice and see if I can convert your keystroke code to my
needs.

Indeed. I wrote CVS where I intended to write SCM (source code
management, or version control
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_control>).
I still advice to use SVN, more modern than CVS.
I indicated Tortoise only as an example of use on Windows: I installed
it, and it installs SVN, hiding the gory details, creating a lightweight
database where you ask, and so on. And you use it directly in Windows
Explorer, where you have your files.
I have yet to read more the manual, I under-use it, alas.
