No, no, I meant that my normal "update software" session now starts
with

$ cvs -z3 update -dP .

And I hardly even bother with Freshmeat as

$ function man,do-i-need () {
> cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@example.com$1.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/$1 login;
> cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@example.com$1.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/$1 checkout $1;
> }

generally Does The Right Thing....  :-)
