Actually, also, Brian and Lefty seem to work out of the same
office. We probably cannot require postings of their verbal
musings.

Last night, I ran through some emacs macros that converted
*all* of the CVS command line options into autoopts option
definitions. Another hour or so and I'll have a command line
"hello, world!" program that accepts all the CVS options from
the command line, environment variables and RC files. From
that we can prune the dinkleberries and add in new feature
coverage. My guess: you'll see it Thursday. (I have more
plumbing to do when I get home today.)
