Hello,

I have written an add-on script for the `Revision Control System' (RCS)
package.  For more information about its functionality, see the README part
below. 

I would suggest the following script categories

           Version Control
           Software Configuration Management
           Software Development


From the README:
----------------
     rcsfreeze.pl is a perl script to freeze a configuration of 
     sources checked in under RCS. 

     This perl script is a complete rewrite of the rcsfreeze.sh shell
     script contained in  the RCS package with its RCS ID:
            $Id: rcsfreeze.sh,v 4.6 1993/11/03 17:42:27 eggert Exp $.  
     The major differences between the shell script and the perl
     script are the following:
     the input argument "symb revision number" 
         - is optional for the shell script. Internally an unique
           revision number is used. 
         - is mandatory for the perl script. Only this symbolic
           revision number is used.
     the log message
         - is saved by the shell script in its own file 
           rcsfreeze.log. But there are no tools available to
           retrieve the log messages for a given revision number.
         - is saved by the perl script amongst the other RCS log
           messages.  Therefore they can be retrieved with the 
           appropriate rlog command. 


I am looking forward to your comments.

Norbert
