Hi Tobias,

And provides the dumb locks? I want the locks to be (re)moved. Paul Sander 
convinced me that it is not good idea to remove it totally (even thought he 
did not try to do that, but that is my conclusion from his posting that CVS 
can do the locking in a smart way and still be the same good, or better, 
CVS...)

They look text because they are text. To make them binary gets you in 
trouble with the 'CR/LF' between Unix and Windows. The accompanied 'frx' 
file is tagged binary, but the 'frm' file is a text, and I want it that way.

Yep, if you understand why do you ask to 'enlighten' you? Waste my time and 
list banwidth?

I just want to make that 'change' happening, but in the way to serve most of 
CVS users and CVS itself...
