I still prefer SCCS. It's all command line, and I like it's implementation. Perhaps it is just indoctrination. Does anyone know if it is available for Windoze or just Doze? I'm currently in the process of writing a sockets driver to a Linux machine so I can use Linux as my control machine. Then you don't have problems with your Win95 box scribbling your file locking or your files.. I have PVCS integrated into Borland 5.1. This GUI seems to be fairly intuitive, but it is the stripped down version. Craig ---------- > From: Alan G.
