Close, but not quite. That won't display the file name. Change the command to: cvs rlog . | egrep "(RCS file|issue number)" | grep -B1 "issue number" | grep "RCS file" Notes: 1) that this should be all one command - ignore any line wrapping that may occur. 2) "issue number" is a placeholder for your actual issue number. - -- Jim Hyslop Dreampossible: Better software.
