Betr.: CVS History

Hello,

The somegeneratedtmpfileordirname file is just a temporary text file 
containing a list of filenames (1 full pathname on each line) for which 
you want to run the command. 
So for example:
TortoiseAct.exe CVSHistory -f 
"c:\windows\temp\filelistcontainingonefilename.txt" 
will give you the history of the filename mentioned in the .txt file. The 
.txt file will be deleted immediately after reading by tortoiseAct. 

ps.: I don't think manually calling tortoiseAct manually (not from the 
shell extention) is officially `supported', but I have been doing it all 
the time for about 4 years without ever running into problems ;-)

Kind Regards,

[TortoiseCVS] CVS History






I am using TortoiseCVS 1.8.32 on Windows XP.
I use the CVS History dialog frequently.
Right Click on the file in explorer -> CVS History ...

And it shows the History Dialog.

It seems to be done by first running cvs log -f filename & then
Invoking TortoiceAct.exe and command line for this option looks
like
TortoiseAct -f somegeneratedtmpfileordirname -h 0xhandle

I tried opening somegeneratedtmpfileordirname but it didn't exist
(even when the history dialog was active).
the handle seems to be handle of the explorer window.

I tried all other combinations of command line - but I am not able
to get the History Window without going through Explorer.

Can someone suggest a way of doing this - multiple steps are fine.
