Using rlog to look for files associated with a particular label

[Cannon, Alastair, VF UK, Partner]

Hi,

I am porting (or trying to) a ksh unix script to perl. In the ksh script rlog is used in the generation of a list of file names and versions associated with a particular label. It basically seems to do it by rlog'ing *every* file in the repository and looking to extract the version from the line containing the label in question.

I am very new to RCS - is there a more elegant way of doing this? has anyone out there done it in perl who could give me some pointers?

Any advice or guidance would be most welcome

best regards
