Whatever cvs command you run you have to parse the text output. You can't use the exit code as it only tells you if cvs finished the job with errors or not (errors like memory overflow or so). But then the cvs output should be the same on all environments. bye Fabi _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
