Hi all,

Finaly I did the CVS for OpenSibyl. If you want to use it you need CVS
binary, and optinal NOSA (recommended).

Some short instructions:

CVS binary:

http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/dev/util/cvs111.zip

Make sure it's in the PATH. Note that you *have* to set a HOME
environment variable in order to use CVS properly! It won't work
without that. It will save the CVS password in ~HOME/.cvsrc 

After you did a login this file should exist. I recommend to add this
at the end of .cvsrc:

cvs -z9

This will enable compression always if you run CVS. Like this the
checkout definitely goes faster because the stream is compressed. You
can add this by hand as well on every checkout

NOSA:

ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/nosa/nosac106.zip

This is a client which makes the use of netlabs CVS project easy,
including a good INF about how to use CVS on OS/2.

If you want to get the archive by yourself you can set the CVSROOT to:

CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/netlabs.cvs/sibyl

Do a "cvs login" first and enter "readonly" as password.

Then you can check out the whole source with 

cvs co .

(mind the dot!!)

If you have a slow connection you might get the snapshot first:
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/snapshots/sibyl/sibyl_20020515.zip (1.6mb)

Download it, unzip it to the directory you want it to be and run

cvsenv sibyl $fix

on it. This will fix the wrong path in it. (this needs NOSA).

This is the source of Yuri, he might give some instructions how to
compile it. Yuri does this compile with Sibyl compiler? If so we have
to check how we handle it for persons who don't have it... send a
private mail to me if you don't have this compiler please.

I don't know what to do now, maybe someone could create a little
todo-list that other people can start working on it.

I can give CVS write access to everyone who needs it, simply let me
know if you have patches to commit. Yuri is the only one with write
access so far.

hope this helps

cu

Adrian
