Also try getting the server-side list (info -s cvswrappers) & > see if they're there. Ah. -s. Right. That was my mistake. I'm still trying to get my head around cvs info. So when the client sets the kopts, does it do so based on just the local cvswrappers, or local+server cvswrappers... if the latter, then wouldn't it make more sense for cvs info -c cvswrappers to return a union of local+server (since that is what the client acts on). > btw. AFAIK xpm files are text (C structures). I had some .xpm files that were binary... can't remember exactly where they came from...but they were not the usual xpm files... this just goes to show that you can't really judge a file from its extension. -- David Somers VoIP: FWD 622885 PGP Key = 7E613D4E Fingerprint = 53A0 D84B 7F90 F227 2EAB 4FD7 6278 E2A8 7E61 3D4E
