Huntsville, Al Lines: 25 I have, what I hope is a simple problem. A thousand pardons if this question has been asked "billions and billions" of times. In developing a product under SCCS, we have, finally, gotten to the point where we need to make a release. So far no problems; however, I would like to "remember" or baseline our platform so that some later time (fixes release, etc.) I can automagically recreate the platform. I've kluged up shell scripts to ferret out the "highest" delta from the s-file, and I save a file that has lines: "/usr2/ee/ti/src/SCCS/s.ti.c 1.3". And I can write a shell script to read this file and "get -r1.3...." But there has got to be a better way (ala the VAX/VMS CMS command baseline). Finally, the question. _IS_ there a better way?? The Unix SYSV 3.1 release we use has a program called vc(1) that purports to be a version control filter for SCCS files, but darned if I can see how it is any help. Send email, post here, send smoke signals, anything!!! :-) Many thanks in advance. -- Mark VandenBrink Intergraph Corp. ...uunet!ingr!b17b!b109i2!markv (205) 772-1770
