I can help with your grev questions...
To create a new revision file use this syntax:
grev new <filename>
To let the pmake command automatically update your revision number (the
fourth digit) you need to name the file the same as your .gp file but make
the suffix .rev.
To make a new revision number:
grev newrev <filename> <revnumber>
Filename is the one you created (full DOS 8.3 name) and revnumber is the
first THREE digits (for example 1.2.3) The documents (Chapt 10 of the Tools
Manual) are wrong in their explanation of this grev command. The docs say to
use the first TWO digits. Using only two will not work.
You can look at your revision file with any text editor to see the results of
the various grev commands.
Maybe Nathan can help with your protocol questions...
