Rod, Before you get started again, please just remember that I do this for fun :-) CTM is still widely regarded as black magic, and I don't know if anybody actually have ever read the mkCTM script. I keep trying to get somebody besides myself to look into the code (by starving my users with a "nice feature, when do you do it ?" every time they ask me for something :-). And it seems like I'm having some luck now. The mkCTM script is a prototype. It will go away. I have the 'C' version at home, I still need to get it up to par with the mkCTM version. The only reason the mkCTM script is in the CVS tree, is that I might get hit by the famous truck, and it would indeed look silly without the generating software. I actually feel a bit bad about having code this quality in the tree, so I restrict the commits and the messages to this particular directory to a minmum. Are you interested in CTM, and how to control the delta generation ? I'll be more than happy to tell you anything you want to know, and a good deal more too :-) -- Poul-Henning Kamp -- TRW Financial Systems, Inc.
