I'm sorry. I should have really waited to finish my
coffee before making my last reply -- I know better :-(
More accurately;
I saw an apparent need for a name change for this
port, as it continued to gain additional RCS support;
now up to CVS, GIT, RCS and SVN. TkCVS no longer
seemed to cut it.
I gave it some thought, and decided that TkRCS
really seemed to hit the target. I made/tested the
changes required to make the change, and found all
was well. Before submitting a patch upstream. I
decided I should really take the time to remove
the cruft I discovered while making my initial
changes. This turned into a rabbit hole, which took
much longer than I imagined, as there was clearly
quite a bit of (bad) copy/past(ing), as well as
platform dependent nonsense that crept in. After
completion, I whipped up a diff, and sent it along
for consideration. She indicated had no issue with
a name change, and that's where it stands.
As to "bogus" version;
This is the version I chose, and also a part of the
patch I submitted upstream. I picked the number, as
it provided enough "points" to cover potential updates
to TkCVS.
Thanks for your continued time, and effort with this.
