To run on Windows:

  - You need windows-native diff.exe, cvs.exe, cat.exe.

    Diff, cat, and lots of other unix utilities can be found here:
      http://www.edv.agrar.tu-muenchen.de/~syring/win32/UnxUtils.html

    CVS can be found here:
      http://www.sourcegear.com/CVS/Dev/code

 -  Set the following environment variables (e.g. in your autoexec.bat):

    HOME:       This is where cvs stores the .cvspass file.  For
                security reasons this should not be the root directory of 
                a drive.

    USER:       Set this to your user name on the cvs server. I'm not
                sure, but I think cvs will complain if it is not set.

    As far as I know USER and HOME are automatically set under NT.

    CVSROOT:    Set it as described in the Cederqvist manual.

 - Optionally, make a shortcut to TkCVS like this:

    Target "C:\Program Files\Tcl\bin\wish83.exe C:\bin\tkcvs.tcl
    Start in "C:\u\users\lcs


Sample autoexec.bat:

rem *** Env.-Variables and PATHs for TkCVS etc.
rem **************************************************

rem --- Path to tclsh and wish
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Tcl\bin

rem ---  'T:' is the drive letter on which the server is 'mounted'.
rem ---  Path to external utilities (cvs, diff, cat)
set PATH=%PATH%;T:\fsf_tools

rem --- CVS-specific entries
rem ---  Use forward slashes here.
SET CVSROOT=:pserver:schulze@server:/cvsroot
SET HOME=c:/u/users/lcs
SET USER=schulze
