CVS frontend

Can you recommend any CVS frontend for Linux?
I've seen Cervisia, but I want KDE-free application.
I also don't want to use Eclipse.
Any other choices?

Re: CVS frontend

I need free client for Linux.
Do you know anything except Cervisia from KDE and Eclipse?

Re: CVS frontend

LinCVS would be an alternative. It's not KDE but a pure QT client (so not GTK2 based, but QT based).
http://www.lincvs.de/

For GTK clients look at
http://p_harmacy.sourceforge.net/index.html (remove the _, the board censores the name, it's gtk1 and apparently out of development)
http://cvsgui.sourceforge.net/

A TCL/TK Client:

Re: CVS frontend

Are they?
I couldn't find lincvs and cvsgui (gcvs) anywhere around.

I might add them later today in the evening, got some package patching to do for kima anyway.

Re: CVS frontend

They are not.
I can't compile gcvs, someone must work on it to adopt it for current libraries, it uses gtk-1.2 and probably was compiled only with older gcc.
