A front-end to CVS
PCL-CVS is a front-end to the CVS version control system. It presents the status of all the files in your working area and allows you to commit/update several of them at a time. Compare with the general Emacs utility vc-dir, which tries to be VCS-agnostic. You may find PCL-CVS better/faster for CVS. PCL-CVS was originally written by Per Cederqvist many years ago. This version derives from the XEmacs-21 version, itself based on the 2.0b2 version (last release from Per). It is a thorough rework. PCL-CVS is not a replacement for VC, but adds extra functionality. As such, I've tried to make PCL-CVS and VC interoperate seamlessly (I also use VC). To use PCL-CVS just use `M-x cvs-examine RETRET'. There is a TeXinfo manual, which can be helpful to get started.
