Re: [OT ?] *WIN*CVS setup questions

[Gaurav Vaish]

You must login before checking out.

Step 0. Set all variable, specifically, CVSROOT
Step 1. make a directory, say, /home/me/projects/FreeDos
Step 2. execute "cvs login". When asked for password, simply press enter.
Step 3. execute "cvs co freedos"

Note that I've capitalized FreeDos just to demonstrate that "FreeDos"
is just a name and may or may not match the module name.

When you execute step 3, you will get something like:

/home/me/projects/FreeDos/freedos/... <all files>

Happy Hacking,
