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 :-)
