I've been using SCCS on UNIX for a while, and I would like to have a similar
source code version control utility which runs on the PC in MS-DOS.  I know
that MKS offers their own RCS implementation and that Polytron (now Sage
Software) has PVCS.  However, I would like something a little cheaper
(free if possible).

I was reading in PC Week this month (July 9, 1990 issue) and on page 93
an article  mentioned

	A simplified version of SCCS, written by developer Chris
	Dunford is available from electronic bulletin boards such
	as the IBM Programmers' Forum on CompuServe.

This sounds like something that I can use.  Unfortunately, I don't have
access to CompuServe, so if someone can download it from there and post 
to comp.sys.ibm.binaries, I'd appreciate it.

Otherwise, can someone suggest a suitable alternative for version control
that I may download from the net?

Thank you,
Daniel
