RE: Re: How can I get RCSfile keyword functionality?

Hi All

I would also be interested in a 'reduced' keyword as in $FILE$. However
it would be of most use to expand (somehow) to be only the file name -
all the other keywords expand with the keyword markers as well ($Rev:
131 $ for example when often only the numeric part is required. I
understand this could be difficult for the reverse substitution prior to
commit but you lot are clever guys so?

As I read it, instead of $URL$ resolving to
http://wherever/myproject/trunk/foo.c the OP wanted $FILE$ to resolve
to just foo.c

Quite possible, but AFAIK not currently implemented.
