CVS: .py files seem to be classed as binary ...

["BAZLEY, Sebastian" <Se...@london.sema.slb.com>]

Not sure if it matters a great deal, but a lot (all?) of the .py files seem
to be classed as Binary - at least that's what Eclipse tells me when I do a
synchronize ...

I'm no CVS expert so don't really know what this means. So eclipse sync w/
repo won't do diffs for you, is that it? Seems to work for me. I don't know
if it makes a difference that I added a Python eclipse plugin.
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyeclipse/).

[FWIIW: I think we might have some *.pyc (definitely binary) files in CVS
'cos I filtered them out from view and may have checked them in (by
accident) before I created a .cvsignore. Need to clean those up some time.]

I've gone into Eclipse Window/Preferences/Team/File Content and added 'py'
extn as ASCII TEXT.
I've gone into Eclipse Window/Preferences/Team/Ignored Resources and added
'*.pyc'.
[Shame pyeclipse didn't do this for me.]

So, hopefully I won't be such future offender in the same way...

Ok, sounds like somebody who knows a bucket load more than I do about CVS.
I've used Eclipse on W2K to create most of these, including the CVS
add/commit. I suspect the text ones are the original files created by
others, and the non-text ones (the majority now I guess) by me. I can try to
figure out more about Eclipse CVS, but all pointers on how to fix this would
be appreciated.

Sorry for being a GUI weeny (I feel so young again... ;-)

I found a handful of .py files that have been added as text files, but the
vast majority have been added as binary. This is definitely bad. For one
thing, it causes line ends to get messed up, which in turn can cause diffs
to go wild. I definitely think we should fix this.
