C-x v = diffs the current and checked in version. C-x v g can look at the last checked in file and have the changes highlighted in color with date, user, and version. C-x v l gives me the change log. C-x v ~ checks out old versions. And all the buffers created by the above can be edited with the full power of emacs. Why bother going out to a command line? seberino@spawar.navy.mil (Christian Seberino) writes: > How much benefit would there be to using GDB and CVS from within > Emacs??? -- -- Ken Goldman kgold@watson.ibm.com 914-784-7646
