Getting the latest CVS-Version of Zope or PTK is not too difficult. Here you'll find the description of the procedure for Zope. If you want to get the PTK instead, just substitute "Zope2" with "ZopePTK": http://classic.zope.org:8080/Community/CVS_public_access In short, it works like that: - First you need a running CVS. Standard with Linux distros, but for WinNT it could be a bit tricky to install (never tried). - Change into the directory where the files should be placed - log in (only needed once): cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository login The password is "anonymous". - Download the complete tree: cvs -z7 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository checkout Zope2 or for PTK: cvs -z7 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository checkout ZopePTK - Later, you can just update single directories with: cvs -z7 -q up -P -d That's it.
