More doco updates


Hi,

This is an update to cvs.html, which shows the examples with the new prompt style. It also provides clarification on the cvs update procedure, since "cvs update" alone will cause the entire src tree to be pulled if you have "update -dP" in your ".cvsrc" file. I've seen more then a few repositories which encourage people to keep that setting, so I have revised the update procedure to use a method which Robert reccommended the other day.


Cheers,
Nicholas
