Defining the module
===================

   The next step is to define the module in the `modules' file.  This
is not strictly necessary, but modules can be convenient in grouping
together related files and directories.

   In simple cases these steps are sufficient to define a module.

  1. Get a working copy of the modules file.

          $ cvs checkout CVSROOT/modules
          $ cd CVSROOT

  2. Edit the file and insert a line that defines the module.  
See Intro administrative files, for an introduction.  
See modules, for a full description of the modules file.  You can
     use the following line to define the module `tc':

          tc   yoyodyne/tc

  3. Commit your changes to the modules file.

          $ cvs commit -m "Added the tc module." modules

  4. Release the modules module.

          $ cd ..
          $ cvs release -d CVSROOT
