Sometimes it seems that it is impossible to please people. When messages are short then people complain that they did not get sufficient details, or examples. I provide details and tests so that anyone could easily attempt to duplicate exactly what I said was happening and you complain that they are too long. Baring any typo mistakes on my part, performing the tests should produce the exact results that I stated were happening. > That is very hard to believe.

The CVS problems were mentioned in the article I linked to and were discussed by people involved in CVS development. Whether you choose to believe all those people or not is up to you. See my reply to Terry, from the end user perspective, the Windows behavior does not make sense. Short enough? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
