The copy of RCS that I got off of simtel didn't have the source but I was able 
to get the source from another location.  I didn't fully read the copying file.

Has anyone ported RCS to the Borland line of compilers?  If anyone has could 
you please point me to the source?  I would like the DOS version to save the
log files with the .?_v extension so I can make the dependency statement in
the makefile.

Thanks in advance.
