First off, please forgive me if this is in a FAQ, but...

I've been using RCS for some time but recently decided that a particular
behaviour was annoying enough to try to find a solution for it.

When you first check a module into RCS you are prompted to give some
descriptive text about the file.  This text is stored in the RCS file but is
*not* stored in the $Log$.  What I'd like to do is have this description appear
in both places, that way all information concerning the module is contained
in the module for easy access.

I can find no option that will do this, and I would rather avoid resorting to
cutting-and-pasting from the RCS file.

Any suggestions?  TIA
