Ideally, I'd prefer to recycle standard CVS options as much as possible, but given that the confusion is already there (worse: cvs' -z wants an argument (compression level), cvsps' -Z doesn't) that may not actually make sense. *Shrug* I'm too happy when other people improve my tools to get hung up on details like that. ;-) -- Matthias Urlichs | {M:U} IT Design @ m-u-it.de | smurf@smurf.noris.de Disclaimer: The quote was selected randomly.
