TkCVS release 7.0

NOTE:  requires Tcl/Tk8.1 or above!

-----------------------
TkCVS is a Tcl/Tk-based graphical interface to the CVS configuration
management system.  It displays the status of the files in the current
working directory, and provides buttons and menus to execute CVS commands
on the selected files.  TkDiff is included for browsing and merging your
changes.

TkCVS extends CVS with a method to produce a browsable, "user friendly" listing of modules in the repository.  This requires that the CVSROOT/modules file
actually lists some modules.  Additional comment fields can be added to make
the browser more informative.

Remote repositories are supported, although the login step must be done at
the commandline.

Versions 6.3 and above run on Unix (many flavors have been tested) and on
Windows9x and NT.  CVS and diff are required.

-----------------------
This release requires tk8.1 or better and cvs 1.5 or better.  It was tested
with cvs 1.9 - 1.11.  There are numerous known problems with cvs1.9.28,
so don't use it.

-----------------------
See the "INSTALL" file for installation instructions.

Known issues:

DEC Alpha - some tcl/tk installations have to be supplemented with the
Img extension <http://members1.chello.nl/~j.nijtmans/img.html> in order
to display the .gif bitmaps.

HP-UX - there's something going on with certain versions of TK which causes
the logcanvas browser to hang.  If you upgrade to tk8.3, it won't hang
but it looks a little messy at the bottom of the branches.
