This FAQ is pretty puny.  If you have anything to add, please do!

Q1. How do I log in to a remote server?
Q2. I can't get the Module Browser to work with my CVSROOT/modules file!
Q3. I haven't put the tkcvs extensions in my CVSROOT/modules file yet.  Can
    I still use tkcvs to check out a project?

Q1. How do I log in to a remote server?

A. There's no way to transmit a password through tkcvs yet, but luckily you
   don't have to.  If it's a pserver, do "cvs login" once from the command
   line, then start tkcvs.  CVS client saves your password (encrypted) in
   your .cvspass file.

   For ssh, it's a little more trouble, but here's one way to do it:
   % ssh-agent $SHELL
   % setenv CVSROOT username@cvs.tkcvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/project
   % setenv CVS_RSH ssh
   % ssh-add (type passphrase)
   % tkcvs

   In fact I let my .cshrc do steps 2 and 3, because ssh-agent sources the
   shell rc:

     if ($?SSH_AUTH_SOCK) then
       setenv CVS_RSH ssh
       setenv CVSROOT username @cvs.tkcvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/project
     endif

Q2. I can't get the Module Browser to work with my CVSROOT/modules file!

A. You're not alone.  Here are some common mistakes:

   Make sure the fields in your file are separated by TABS!  Does your editor
   automatically de-tab when you save a file?  (Hint: if your editor has syntax
   highlighting, use the Makefile mode.)

   Every group of modules (#M) must be preceded by a directory (#D).

   Not quite every possible module arrangement that can be specified in the
   modules file can be reflected in the Module Browser.  We hope to do a major
   re-vamping of the browser to fix that and to make it easier to use.

Q3. I haven't put the tkcvs extensions in my CVSROOT/modules file yet.  Can
    I still use tkcvs to check out a project?

A. Yes.  Start tkcvs.  Open the Module Browser.  It will be empty because
   there's no modules file, but type the name of the project in the "Module"
   entry.  Press the Checkout button (the ball with the arrow).
