right, because that clears all the "sticky" info including that one
is working from a branch. I'm beginning to understand CVS a bit
more, having spent a few hours looking at the "Open Source Developent
with CVS" book. <Off-topic -- there seems to be no info in that
about exit status values returned by CVS, which would be useful when

I doesn't seem to have resulted in the DRuby stuff being picked up.
What I did was run this:
http://www.eng.cse.dmu.ac.uk/~hgs/ruby/do_rubycvsdocs_1.8.sh
the results of the running it are at:
http://www.eng.cse.dmu.ac.uk/~hgs/ruby/rubycvsdocs1.8/index.html
(on the basis that when it works, publishing this may help others.)
but they don't seem to include the lib/rinda and so forth. Have I
botched the cvs commands?
