You can put lots of whitespace and lots of comment lines in a modules
file. Can't you increase the readability that way?

Hi Fred,

o.k. I think for now this is the easiest way to solve the problem of
readability. Thanks for the hint.

 No.

Thank you for your reply Larry. I´ve searched google today and found no
match for my question. I think no one except us likes to split up a
modules file into multiple files...;o).

We have a dozen (the number is continuously growing) projects with five
up to ten sub-modules for each project in one repository and the modules
file is getting more and more unreadable. This is why we like to have
it separated into one file per project. Maybe there are many more
advantages when making this possible which we can´t figure out
yet...(we´re new to cvs..)


  If this is not available in the current version of CVS (where currently
  using 1.11 on Solaris I think), will it be in future versions?
 
 Only if people generally think it's a good idea and someone writes the
 code and contributes it.

I hope someone will think that this is not only nice to have...
Unfortunately we´re not able to code this (the cvs-server is available
in sourcecode, right?).

Thanks again for your help.

Regards
Andreas Thalau
