tkCVS Tips

You can configure tkCVS to launch any editor when you open a file.

1. Edit the .tkcvs file in your home directory.
2. Add the following lines

set cvscfg(editor) zendstudio
set cvscfg(editorargs)

In order for the editor options to work with Zend Studio, I had to modify my /usr/bin/zendstudio script to open files using the full path. Here's that script.

#!/bin/bash

# Setup the path to add, or not
if echo "$1" | grep ^\/ >/dev/null; then
  x="$1"
else
  x=`pwd`/$1
fi


/usr/local/Zend/ZendStudio-5.5.0/bin/ZDE $x

wmctrl -a Zend

I need to change this script so that it doesn't use pwd if $1 starts with / or ../ or similar.
