Hi... I have some information for your FAQ. Some people need the pcl-cvs (cvs within emacs) package, but it didn't work for NT. Ok here the solution: - Get the current version of pcl-cvs (1.9) - Edit the pcl-cvs.el - Search for >cvs-shell "-c"< and replace it to >cvs-shell "/c"< - Search for >"-m" msg< and replace it to >"-m" (concat "\"" msg "\"")< That's all - Now you can update, commit, add (tested) and i hope everthing else will work as well... I can also send you the changed version ?! Here the changes for the _emacs: ;; ======== CVS ======== (require 'pcl-cvs) (setq cvs-auto-remove-handled t) (define-key global-map [C-f1] 'cvs-update) (setq cvs-program "c:\\tools\\cvs.exe") (setq cvs-diff-program "c:\\tools\\diff.exe") (setq cvs-rmdir-program "c:\\tools\\rm.exe") (setq cvs-shell "C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\cmd.exe") The path (c:\\tools and c:\\windows) should be changed...
