Having trouble with RCS

[Dave Burke]

Hi

I'm trying to use RCS 5.7 on tcl scripts. These scripts use # as the comment character.

When I check in the code, RCS isn't recognising the $Id: field or $Log: field so I get no history

Essentially the format of the file header is as follows

#
#  $Id:
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# File details etc
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Revision Control
#
#       $Log:
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After checking in the ,v file is as follows

head 1.1;
access;
symbols;
locks; strict;
comment @# @;
 

1.1
date 2001.03.19.14.55.11; author dburke; state Exp;
branches;
next ;
 

desc
@test version
@
 

1.1
log
@Initial revision
@
text
@#
#  $Id:
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
##
# File details etc
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
#       $Log:
#
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I notice from the man pages that the rcs -c option has been obsoleted. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong or is there a workround?

regards

Dave Burke
