The original poster wanted to group files the other way, not by revision but by name, so that if I say co xyz where xyz is a group name then I will get abc, def, and ghi which I previously defined as belonging to xyz. IMHO this is only useful in systems like VMS that don't have make by default. -- Michael Salmon #include <standard.disclaimer> #include <witty.saying> #include <fancy.pseudo.graphics> Ericsson Telecom AB Stockholm
