bitkeeper looks like a good idea, but it's commercial and i do not have monetary means available. aside, i could not find some sort of evaluation, so i could not establish, whether bitkeeper would solve my problems. > File permissions and such might also be handled by a secondary script > which keeps a list of settings and applies them following updates. this is mainly the problem that i am trying to circumvent. if permissions weren't a problem, CVS would suit me just fine, but i do not want to go through the administrative and potentially erroneous process of scripted messing with file permissions in bulk on productive systems -- especially not because of the need of real-time reconfiguration as files get added or permissions changed globally. thanks though for your reply, and sorry for the long delay in answering. martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- "i believe that the moment is near when by a procedure of active paranoiac thought, it will be possible to systematize confusion and contribute to the total discrediting of the world of reality." -- salvador dali
