I agree that this is generally desirable, but as far as I can tell subversion has no support for custom keyword expansion, so it would require modifying subversion to handle it. Using $SMI$ as the tag would seem preferable if that was done, since (as best I can tell) it effectively would cover its current usage also. -- Rich _______________________________________________ tools-discuss mailing list [email protected]
