$ svn ci -m "comment"
Is a common way for documentation to tell that you should type exactly what is behind the $. The '$' itself is a placeholder for your prompt which could be something like 'C:\Windows>' on Windows or something like '~/svn-site (bert@host)' on another system. If you leave out the $ and installed the commandline binaries things should work for you. Bert PS. Please use plain text on this mailing list as that makes it much easier/possible to answer in-line.

You could then call `svn commit`, see the on-line book help:- http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.tour.cycle.html#svn.tour.cycle.commit ~ mark c OK- I tired now: c:\Program files\TortoiseSVN\bin> $svn commit I got the following message: '$svn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Where exaclty am I supposed to write this command. I dont' see in the book.... In what path on the cmd line? Is this how to use it? Do I write $svn? or just svn (which also didn;t work for me)? Am I supposed to download anything else besides TortoiseSvn? (I downloaded it form <http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html> http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html, for 32-bit OS) I appreciate your help. Thanks, Carmit
