   Subject: Unix w/ Versions

   Does anyone have a patch that will allow me to use version numbers on files
   residing on a UNIX file server (using an Explorer as the FTP/NFS client).
   It shouldn't be to hard to do this the way GNU Emacs handles version
   numbers, but I'd rather not reinvent any wheels.  [GNU writes
   foo.lisp.newest as "foo.lisp" and foo.lisp.3 as "foo.lisp.~3~"]

I agree that it would be very useful.  I'm not aware of an such patch
for the Explorer, though.  Symbolics/ILA's NFS system does give you this
capability.  It comes in very handy when developing a single-source
system that is to be run on Lisp Machines and UNIX boxes.
