OK, am I nuts? I tried this on my system:
Fire up the IDL Workbench
Help->Cheat Sheets...->Team/CVS->Check out a CVS project
This then lists 'Check out a CVS project' in a window.
Under Introduction,
Open the CVS Repository Exploring perspective
> Click to perform
Then I get an error message:
The command did not complete successfully.

Perspective could not be opened.
What's the use of including a CVS cheat sheet in the standard distribution
if it doesn't work? What am I missing?
Thanks!
