That would be great.  If you could preserve the format of the document (and
change the rev to 11), I'd appreciate it.

If anyone has a suggestion for a better way to track changes to the

p.s.  I see that Steve is trying to single-handedly boost the cad.dev
traffic statistics. :-)

Do we really need to put the revision number next to every line?  I find
that astheically annoying.  The way we do it in Nuke land is put a heavy
black line in the margin next to all the lines that changed from the last
revision.
