Just to make sure you know, the svn repository is source code that you will have to compile. If TortoiseSVN only copies repositories and reads and does not update, then you need svn itself. But I know almost nothing about it except the name. In any case, to update a local code repository, you would need one to begin with by downloading the whole think initially. tjr -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
