There are a number of GNU elisp interfaces for RCS...the best I think is from snow.white.toronto.edu, pub/emacs/rcs-cks.el. Last update apparently March 1. I've modified it quite extensively to do tag file checkin-checkouts, checkin of all checked-out files in a directory, and automatic creation of branches for naive users who don't want to learn rcs commands. I would consider it not quite beta ready, but if anybody wants it send mail. Since I modified a version prior to March 1, I'll have to merge my changes in with the new ones. Sigh. Anyway an interface does make things easier for users. -- Ralph Finch The opinions expressed herein are mine... rfinch@water.ca.gov ...ucbvax!ucdavis!caldwr!rfinch 916-445-0088
