Believe it or not, I forgot to add something to this thread. For those that aren't familiar with cvs there is Windows wrapper for it called 'Wincvs' that you may find easier to acclimate to. Perhaps it would be useful to add something like the ACE project's Problem Report Form (PRF) (http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE_wrappers/PROBLEM-REPORT-FORM) that would channel new users to providing more appropriate information when they have questions. I realize that cygcheck -(whatever those options are) will do much of this work but the hallmarks of debugging (clear problem explanations, what was tried and a simple test case/example) are not always to non-developers (as Dilbert likes to illustrate). ________________________________ Glen Coakley, Sr. Software Engineer MQSoftware Inc., (763) 543-4845 "Tinkero ergo sum." -- Chuck Murcko -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
