Hi David -
Would you consider adding a per-repository cvsignore file to LISA? It would be nice if cvs ignored all the *.fas *.fasl *.?fasl *.?fas and *.lib files which are generated after LISA is compiled.
I keep LISA in a subdirectory of my project, and find that cvs update generates a large number unknown file traces:
? lisa/src/belief-systems/belief.fas
? lisa/src/belief-systems/belief.lib
? lisa/src/belief-systems/belief.ufasl
? lisa/src/belief-systems/certainty-factors.fas
? lisa/src/belief-systems/certainty-factors.lib
? lisa/src/belief-systems/certainty-factors.ufasl
? lisa/src/config/config.fas
... etc.
Here's some documentation on the subject:

(I didn't realize it was possible to add a cvsignore (note: no ".") to the SourceForge CVSROOT until recently. It turns out one can checkout CVSROOT as module, add cvsignore and commit.)
Cheers,
Aneil
