Oops, yes, of course. I'll correct that ASAP.

I use it frequently, yes.

Well, it's just a proposal. You could edit it before executing the macro.
Often the directory name corresponds directly to a module name. However, in
that case you could just as well use the "regular" ChangeLog macro instead.
The point of the Build ChangeLog by module is to be able to build logs for
"virtual" modules that are not directly deductible from anything that's in
the sandbox. For me the directory name is still often a good starting point
however.

Hmm, it'd be news to me that you could give a relative module path. Relative
to what would that be?
I'll have a look at it tonight, though. No more time right now... we're in
the process of preparing to move out.

No, it's correct. For the macro to work, the parent directory may NOT
already be CVS-controlled, as the macro will temporarily create a ./CVS
directory within it (by non-recursively checking out the repository root).
If there already was a ./CVS directory the information in there would
override the settings entered by the user and the macro would not work as
expected.

Agreed. Note though that even the Macros/Reload Macro item has some glitches
still. Repeat it a few times and suddenly all macros are greyed out... I
think there's a tracker item for this already. No time to look it up right
now...

That's one for the issue tracker. What we really need is a full-fledged Add
dialog which exposes the full functionality of the commandline client.
There's many more options supported by recent CVSNT versions, among others
the improved successor to the infamous "Check-out with Unix LF" (-kL) and an
option to enable binary deltas in the repository (-kB). Furthermore all
these options could be combined freely (e.g. -kLo or -kuzv, etc.). Just take
a look at the output of cvs -H admin for the availabe -k options.

Most of the time it works best if the settings are just kept blank. However,
it might indeed be more transparent if the checkbox was initially checked by
default and the entry simply read "tcl84.dll" (or whichever was the one that
succeeded to load the first time from the PATH) without full path.
Unchecking would result in WinCvs not even trying to load it. The same for
the Python DLL.

I think the above would take care of that, or did I maybe misunderstand you?
