It is easy now and in the future to check out a particular release directly
from the CVS repository. For example:
marc nospam at oranje$ cvs checkout -r CDI_0_4_0 cdi_client
cvs server: Updating cdi_client
U cdi_client/AUTHORS
U cdi_client/COPYING
.
.
U cdi_client/sha_func.c
marc nospam at oranje$ cd ..; diff -r ../../linux/cdindex-0.4.0 cdi_client
Only in cdi_client: CVS
diff -r ../../linux/cdindex-0.4.0/mkinstalldirs cdi_client/mkinstalldirs

What is the present state of the client?
- Supposed to run under Linux and Win32/MSVC++
Could someone test this, please?
- Tested under FreeBSD 4.0-current, supposed to
run on older versions too
- The IRIX diffs go into PRE6 after this mail
This, modulo bugs, will yield 1.1.0.
Further plans from my side:
- We are very likely to have support for a free Win32
environment in a few days. I got the Cygwin environment
running under Windows NT yesterday and managed to compile a
CVS client with minor modifications from source (see below).
Next to being free, this plattform has the advantage of
using the usual UNIX build tools.
- A control interface for Netscape navigator (that allows
a client program to tell the browser what page to display
etc.) is documented for the UNIX versions of the browser.
I heard rumors that a DDE based interface is available
for Win32 - can anyone confirm this?
- The result of cleaning up and better separation
will yield 1.2.0 a week later or so.
What we need is a simple access library.
- A prominent cdplayer has to be taught cdindex then,
e.g. the GNOME player.
Regards,
Marc

To build cvs-1.10 under Cygwin:
1. apply patch to rcs.c (quick hack)
2. sh configure
3. ensure that MAKE_MODE=UNIX
4. gmake
5. gmake install
6. cp src/cvs.exe {prefix}/bin
