I've been using cvsu.pl lately and it implements an interface, which
has grown on me...

cvsu --types=[^]LIST
where LIST is any combination of status letters, or a negation of
status letters when preceded by carat. (You'd still have to escape the
^, Justin (what shell is that?). And I always have to escape the ? for
unversioned files.)

But I really like how flexible it is. It also offers a --find flag
which removes anything other than the filename from the command line.
(Sort of the opposite of ls -l.) With --types and --find, I can whip up
shell scripts and useful command-line concoctions to do whatever I want
with my files. Very nice. (a --print0 flag would help avoid trouble
with files with spaces in their names.)

Anyone besides me like this better? or should they both be implemented?

Here's the --help for cvsu:
Usage:
   --local Disable recursion
   --explain Verbosely print status of files
   --find Emulate find - filenames only
   --short Don't print paths
   --ignore Don't read .cvsignore
   --messages List known file types and long messages
   --types=[^]LIST Print only file types [not] from LIST
   --batch=COMMAND Execute this command on files
   --help Print this usage information

Abbreviations and short options are supported

And here's the --messages output:
