if you are on an environment with access to perl svn ls -R --verbose <svn-url> \ | perl -n -e 'print "$_" if /^\s*\d+\s\S+\s+O\s+/;' will do some of it. All you're looking for is an O in the third column of the output. I didn't bother optimising the regex to something nicer but it's possible or you could get svn to list in xml format and then it becomes a quite a bit easier to parse. I don't know what the comment would be as subversion does not require a comment to be provided when locking. If you wanted the last commit message then that would require a second request for each locked file. I also do not believe the date is the time of the lock being obtained. -- __________________________________________________________________________________ Sword Ciboodle is the trading name of ciboodle Limited (a company registered in Scotland with registered number SC143434 and whose registered office is at India of Inchinnan, Renfrewshire, UK, PA4 9LH) which is part of the Sword Group of companies.
