      support Putty's key by using the latest J2SE in the near future, but Eclipse

        <li>Create a file named ".options" in you eclipse directory (the
  directory that contains the executable) that contains the following 2
  lines that enable CVS debugging.
-         <pre>           org.eclipse.team.cvs.core/debug=true<br>                org.eclipse.team.cvs.core/cvsprotocol=true<br>          </pre>

        </li>
        <li>Start Eclipse with the following parameters tailored to you
  local setup (The below example is for windows). The important aspects
  are the use of java.exe instead of javaw.exe and the inclusion of the
  -debug and -consolelog options. These will cause the debug console to
  be visible and for debugging output to appear in the console.
-         <pre>           C:\eclipse\eclipse.exe<br>                 -vm C:\jre\bin\java.exe<br>             -data C:\eclipse\workspace<br>                  -debug<br>              -consolelog<br>              </pre>

        </li>
        <li>Inside Eclipse, create your repo location and expand it in
  the repositories view (for example). The CVS command traffic in the
  debug console should contains an invocation of the update command that
  looks something like (this is output from dev.eclipse.org):

      <p> Unedit works the same as Edit, Editors works the same way as
  Watchers. To use the tools, highlight the file or directory on which to
  execute the CVS command, then select Run-&gt;External Tools-&gt;<tool
