One directory contained two files with same name except their case. Running "cvs co" overwrote one by the other. BTW, what do you think about including .cc, .cpp and maybe .cxx also to the example in the subject info page? Also, how about adding a command to etags.el which generates a tag file by running etags appropriately for the current buffer mode? I did a little bit of research and found two incidents of having tag file generation command in cperl-mode.el and idlwave.el. I wonder which is better that individual language package to support its own tag file generation command or etag.el to provide general tag generation command for many different languages. Any opinion? -Tak _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
