I guess you tried to use the VC commands in the log view, and indeed they do not work. You need to use the PCL-CVS commands instead if the log view comes from PCL-CVS. The relevant prefix is C-x c, so C-x c = will do a diff (IIRC there's a = shortcut for it). Sadly, PCL-CVS does not offer annotate, so that won't help you if you want to annotate the revision (tho you can do C-x c o to open the revision and then C-x v g to annotate it). Stefan
