That's great! I'm glad you like it.

Nope, JCVSReport doesn't support that feature yet. But it's probably
not too hard to add that feature.

In the two getCvsLogData functions in
ca.utoronto.JCVSReport.cvsPlugin, we use 'cvs rlog' to get the logs
for a particular module from the CVS repository. If you wanted to get
the logs for all the files in the CVS repository, all you'd have to do
is run 'cvs log' instead without specifying a module. The other
functions should work as is, I believe.

I'm happy to hear from you. Let me know if there's anything else I can
do to help.

Cheers,

David
