Re: Lyx and CVS
Hi Kayvan,
Put the following in your LaTeX preamble:
% RCS style.
\def\RCSdef $#1${\typeout{RCS keyword string: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: {} :.}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: #2 :#3.{\expandafter\def\csname RCS#1\endcsname{#2}}
Then, in your document (or in your preamble), do:
\RCSdef $Revision$
\RCSdef $Date$
Now, you can use \RCSRevision or \RCSDate in your document (in a
LaTeX ERT inset).
can i use this code similar with CVS?

Yes.

CVS uses rcs (actually has it built in now) as its underlying system, so all
the RCS key words work as listed.
It is CVS that I use, and when I tested Kayvan's advice against my repository,
I found it working beautifully.
