[cvsnt] Re: How to Import module without modify the tag

[Wisley Wisley]

I am a newbie to cvsnt. Regarding to all your command (like -k -v or
-kb), how can I make use of all these switch?
let's say I have a project call abc which already import. where and
how can I check out the project?
I try to open a dos prompt, however it keep asking me for switch -d.

Regards,
Wisley
