I have written a perl script that wraps cvs status in order to add two new
switches:

-i for interesting - skip all the Up-to-date entries, just show me
everything else.

-s for short - skip the equals signs, the versions, etc. Just show me
directory names and file lines such as:

examining bar/yo/mama
File: foo.pm         Status: Locally Added
File: barf.pm        Status: Up-to-date

Does this sound like something that could/should be patched into the source?
A show of hands, please, before I attempt to hack up a patch.


Sounds great! The command "cvs status -is" sounds like a perfect replacement for "cvs -nq update" because a typo that misses one of the switches (-n) won't do any harm.
