CVS Setup for Null Pointer Software:

First you need to get TortiseCVS from http://www.tortoisecvs.org if you have a Windows machine, and MacCVSclient X if you have a Macintosh.

Once you have downloaded the programs, install them as stated in the readme files. TortiseCVS will make you restart.

Right click on your desktop and select CVS Checkout from the contextual menu.

Fill out the screen as shown below, changing rmacconn to your usename of course.

Click ok and you should get the files on your desktop.

From there all actions are done through the contextual menu such as update and commit.
