30 | Sccstorcs builds an RCS Revision Control System file from an SCCS | |
31 | Source Code Control System file. The deltas and comments for each | |
32 | delta are preserved and installed into the new RCS file in order. | |
33 | Also preserved are the user access list and descriptive text, if | |
34 | any, from the SCCS file. |
