Thanks for the quick reply (and yes, I can't believe I couldn't find that myself...) but it still lacks one thing that I'd like to have. I would like the "$Id$" sequences to be updated automatically after a commit (ie. without the need to check out). (Besides I would prefer $Date$ more but I can live with $Id$ I guess ;) ).
