Hi,

Thanks!  I got the CVS version and it works perfectly.  I think using a
variable to allow different functionality is the most flexible
solution. 

One small note: Your web page says to use `guest' as the anoncvs
password.  That did not work for me.  Just typing enter (no passwd)
did, however.


Once again, thanks.

regards,

davep
