I think it is soething like this : EXPORT CVS root cvs -Z3 (??) ..........
because i can't find the way to do it eaysily and as i am not a anciant user of nux.... i would appreciate a way to do it without downloading the complete code...
Directions are under the "CVS" link on the inkscape sourceforge page
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=93438
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@...54...:/cvsroot/inkscape login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@...54...:/cvsroot/inkscape co /modulename/
where you'd replace 'modulename' with 'inkscape' unless you knew of a different one you wanted.
Or... the export can be used to avoid the need for the "-d". Of course, that can vary by shell. On bash it's
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@...54...:/cvsroot/inkscape
then
cvs login
cvs -z3 co /modulename/
Once you've done a checkout "co", then CVS will store the CVSROOT in files in your checked out directory so you won't need to set it again just to update.
