For a single file it is trivial. Example is: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/zsh/ChangeLog.diff?cvsroot=zsh&r 1=1.687&r2=1.688&f=u where f=u is diff type - in this case Unified (default is display-friendly color diff). Of course, if patch spans several files, the whole story is much more complicated. I noted, that CVS mailing list for RedHat-maintained utilities lists all commited files in form of above URLs (as example, look at ). Really handy - if we had some way to associate commits with article numbers. -andrej Have a nice DOS! B >>
