NetBSD has been using this style of RCS id for some time: /* $NetBSD: ch.c,v 1.22 1996/09/18 02:34:31 thorpej Exp $ */ ...located at the top of the file ... format is: /*<tab>$NetBSD$<tab>*/ They're fairly pleasant to look at, and have the advantage of not being mucked with by a local cvs import. The idea was modeled after BSDI's RCS ids (which are a litle different, in that they actually just use " * BSDI $Id$", and then strip of the $'s when they ship a release, but whatever :-) Ciao. -- save the ancient forests - http://www.bayarea.net/~thorpej/forest/ -- Jason R.
