The rest of the contents of the files are identical. It is much easier to 'diff' two branches if you check both of them out using '-kk', and then compare those two directories. That way you won't be distracted by hundreds of CVS-version-numbers mismatches. (With -kk, all files will be checked out without expanding any version numbers). -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
