Re: Does WinCVS support any command line options?

I think you misunderstood my question.  I'd like to
know if wincvs.exe takes any command line parameters,
not cvs.exe.

What I'd like to do is be able to launch WinCVS and
have it come up with the branch/location that I pass
in through the command line.  For example, if I have
two different branches, one at C:\MyProj1 and the
other at C:\MyProj2, I'd like to do something like:

wincvs.exe /loc C:\MyProj1


Thanks,


Jeff
