I was talking about removing tix from the gdb module, not "cvs remove"ing it (although that's an option, too). Removing it from the module will have the effect that Andrew describes since this just involves editing the modules file in CVSROOT. Personally, I don't think it is a big deal. You either confuse every future person who wonders why they're getting the tix directory when they don't need it or you insure that those rare individuals who 'cvs checkout' past versions of insight will not be bothered by the lack of tix. Hmm. Sounds like tix can be removed from the top level Makefiles, too. cgf
