That line about Quanta caught my eye ... Quanta+v.2b5 (Mandrake 8.0) is my
favorite html editor ... so I checked out the demo version of Quanta Gold. It
seems to be very nice and does have the CVS option in a menu, but clicking on
any of the choices in it simply closed the menu.

Hmmm ... I was hoping to learn what I would need to do to use CVS from within
the editor.

Okay ... so I opened the downloaded manual in KGhostView and got 28
consecutive blank pages. Looked like one of those "Everything Men know about
Women" books. Opening the same file in Gedit got a lot of formating
information and a few (encoded) images ... but nowhere near 28 of them. This
is not going well.

I'll try the command line CVS you mentioned. If I can figure out how to make
CVS work in Quanta Gold (it actually supports highlighting for fewer
languages than Q+ -- but still many more than I would care to code in), I'll
buy it.

The only way to keep theKompany from joining Loki is to send them money to
pay their bills with. "Love makes the world go round." For everything else,
there's Master Card. But the software has to work and the documentation files
have to contain documentation.
