Hi,

RCS/CVS is usually preferred over SCCS. You may find the below book useful:

You can convert from SCCS to RCS/CVS using the following script:

The FAQ for CVS can be found here:

Hope this helps. Regards.

Are you asking about how to use the admin command to insert strings in the file to be used in place of %Q, %Y ...? Or are you asking about how to print out the delta that was asked for when you checked it back in (prs).
