PVCS is I believe a Version Control System. The P could be Personal I am not
sure.
idlde does not support this (unfortunately) emacs does.
It is more an emacs question or it is again a posting in the wrong group.

If it is the right group then I am very interested to hear more about the
PVCS and idlde.
