Re: How can I see just the log messages from a certain date?

[Ayelet]

I've read the very informative line :
"-d dates        Specify dates (D1<D2 for range, D for latest before)."
but I probably did not understand it correctly, that's why I'm posting a
question.

When I write is:
CVS log -d 12/20/2001 12/22/2001
it returns an error message that 12/22/2001 is not a known directory

When I write is:
CVS log -d 12/20/2001 -d 12/22/2001
it returns the older log records.

I've tried:
CVS log -d "12/20/2001 < 12/22/2001"
And it gives the entire log

I cant write the "<" sign since it will mean a redirection of input, and
will not work.

So what is the correct command line?

Thanks,
Ayelet
