Wussy tools.
Real Men use CMS on VMS.

That's the one :)
I evaluated CMS and CVS - CVS was free and easy to use and perfectly functional in the VMS environment. How could I fail to recommend it?
Admittedly we had a small team and only a maintenance project.

CMS, not CVS.
CVS runs on poncy operating systems like UNIX and Windows.
CMS only runs on VMS.

Re: CMS, not CVS.
I succeeded in getting CVS to run on VMS quite easily. I can't remember if I compiled it or used a precompiled Alpha VMS version.

CMS is a component of DECSET
And if you know what THAT means without googling, you're older and fartier than you look.
But at least you're a Real Man.

CMS true story
A couple of years back, I was working in the financial industry on the fractional to decimal price conversion [the code running the trading floor]
I was horrified to discover that they were not using _any_ revision control or automated build system - ignorign the perfectly functional ones [CMS, MMS] that were bundled with their operating system [OpenVMS / Alpha]
Was not the most pleasant project - but our teams code worked the first time the QC folks tested it.

hmm,...
I thought you meant DSECT which is an S/370 Assembler term. But no, after a quick google, that's not what you meant.
Have fun, Carl Forde

don't have to be old ...
to know old stuff. I wrote my first assembler program in 1984. I wrote my last (most recent??) one in 1997. I'm really not that old; or so I keep telling myself. I seem to have reached the point where that's a common behaviour... :-)
Have fun, Carl Forde

Agreed! And it's predecessor.
