Me too, maybe its just that these scripts from tcs are
too *n*x oriented. Or the front end is a bit outdated.
It's just plain text that is stored in the test db's.

IMHO we need 
1. an easy way to maintain the scripts under cvs control
2. a platform independent (modern) frontend to this stuff
3. a way to use this under MS Win_something 
   without Cygwin et al

And time to do this all :-(

This doesn't mean that I wouldn't be happy about any 
other solution that solves the problem. (especially
for the MS platforms)

So, never mind.
