hi,

i'm trying to modify an app (gforge) that uses python to do some file
parsing/processing...

i have the following shell file that uses python. if i understand it
correctly, it's supposed to modify the 'viewcvs.conf' file, and
replace/update the section with 'svn_roots'.

it isn't working correctly... can anybody tell me what i need to do?
basically, i'd like to continually add to the svn_root: block with an
additional line as required. also, can someone tell me what i'd need to do,
if i wanted to remove a line of text from the 'svn_root' block if i had a
given 'test_x:'

thanks

bruce
