Uh no, you must think I did not read the manual. In fact, I had read
the manual a few times but could not get answer from there.

>From what I understand, the manual is only good for check out the
recently checked in file. What I want is one a file is checked in, I
want to check out the file and append the filename with a revision #.
For example, if five developers check in five different copied of
abc.c at very short delay. I expect to check out abc.c file and rename
them as abc.c.1, abc.c.2, abc.c.3, abc.c.4 and abc.c.5 respectively in
a particular directory.
