That works for me ... *except* that last I checked the website's CVS page was the flat-file version. If you can update the website from the SGML version then please do so; otherwise I still want to update the flat file so that the webpage can be updated. > I had started cvs.sgml from FAQ_CVS, adding some info about > CVSup culled from mailing list messages.

Precisely; the flat file looks not to have been touched since I made the original version last summer. You and Marc have put a lot of good stuff into the SGML version, but none of those updates are visible on the website. regards, tom lane
