Mike, this is curious indeed.  The original history IS still there,
after the HISTORY marker, and it doesn't have the comment leader " ".

VERY odd that the BIN keyword has been inserted in the file (or does
BIN not suppress expansion of rcs keywords, which usually aren't present?)

thanks...		-josh


here's the result of "co -rGOLDOS as0main.p" (top of the file):

I think the problem is in bci. Don, could you confirm how you provided the 
checkin comments to bci (via the -m flag, via text after the HISTORY line in the 
file, or both)?

If my hunch is correct, you should see that the checked-in file still has your 
text after the HISTORY line, and this is what bsubmit is choking on. It should 
be possible to remove that line (you'll need to make it writeable, edit it, then 
make it readonly), and submit it.

If you've already submitted it by changing the leader to BIN, I'm still 
interested in seeing whether that text is indeed there after the HISTORY line, 
and if so setting the leader back to " ", checking it out, removing the line in 
question, checking it in & submitting it.

Thanks ... Mike
