Since co/update -k options override all file-specific settings (and thus might screw up binary files if used globally) I guess what I should do is checkout only those few files in emacs that still use RCS keywords using -kk and rely on the fact that it's a sticky option. [It's a shame because it would seem to be a much more robust solution to somehow have the CVS/arch gateway script do it.] Thanks, -Miles -- A zen-buddhist walked into a pizza shop and said, "Make me one with everything."
