I believe CVSROOT is only used when you do a "cvs > checkout" and that doesn't happen very often... It's also needed when you login for anonymous access. Forgetool is intended for people like me who need to manage access to multiple SourceForge projects, some as a developer and some anonymously. It manages some local state about which projects you have developer access to and uses that to set CVSROOT and CVS_RSH correctly. Forgetool also supplies boilerplate for commands to copy files to the project HTTP directory. Things it will do soon: 1) Manage shared session keys so you don't have to type a password on each command. 2) Remote scripting of module releases. The basic idea is to make forgetool a Swiss-army knife for SourceForge developers who need to remote-script various common operations. This capability is not a big deal when you are active in one or two projects -- but I run thirty-five (yes, that's 35) projects that are waiting to move to SourceForge the day I can script the release process. -- <a href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr">Eric S.
