Hi there, I had to bail out of a commit to slime because my terminal type was wrong for the editor, but now CVS diff gives messages like: cvs server: [03:02:37] waiting for msimmons's lock in /project/slime/cvsroot/slime It looks like this has left some locks and some processes running (but they are not connected to sockets at my end): msimmons@common-lisp$ ls -ld /project/slime/cvsroot/slime/#* drwxrwxr-x 2 msimmons msimmons 1024 Jul 2 02:59 /project/slime/cvsroot/slime/#cvs.lock -rw-r--r-- 1 msimmons msimmons 0 Jul 2 02:59 /project/slime/cvsroot/slime/#cvs.wfl.common-lisp.net.5251 [/project/slime/cvsroot/slime] msimmons@common-lisp$ ps augxww | grep 'msimmons.*cvs' msimmons 30276 0.0 0.0 2188 660 ?

Maybe just kill the processes, which will delete the locks?
