Thanks to the (many!) people who have offered and/or given pointers to the RCS sources. I'll take someone up on that. The real question which I was wondering about (but didn't explicitly state) is why Sun doesn't distribute RCS as part of SunOS. Yes, I know that Walter Tichy holds the copyright, but there are plenty of other vendors who distribute binaries with their releases, maintaining Tichy's copyright. For example, HP-UX contains RCS on both 9000/3xx (680x0 processors) and 9000/9xx (RISC processors) systems. Why doesn't Sun do that, instead of forcing everyone to get the source & do their own port? Thanks for the enlightenment! --Jeremy Epstein TRW Systems Divison jje@virtech.uu.net uunet!virtech!jje
