DESCRIPTION
cvi
is a program that can be used to edit files and keep track of
updates to those files. Initially, a user may use
vi
or
cvi
to edit a file.
cvi
can then be used on subsequent edits if the original file
needs to be updated. After editing, the updated file is saved with the
original file name -and contains change-bars. The original file is
saved with a revision number appended to the file name. Thus, a user
can keep a history of all changes made to a file.
