I did connected to mercury.cs.uml.edu using Eclipse as IDE and checkout/in
from my PC at home.
This is how.
In Eclipse go to the menu
File->New->Project->CVS->CheckoutProjectFromCVS

In more details...
1. Go to the menu and create  a new projecet.
2. A project wizard window will pop up, asking to select the kind of
project.
3. Select CVS -> Checkout Project From CVS
4. Another window will pop up, asking what kind of repository. Select Create
a new repository location and press next
5. Enter respository information like
    host --> mercury.cs.uml.edu
   Repository path --> yourRepositoryPath
   username --> yourUserName
   password--> yourPassword

That's it...

I could add new files from eclipse to mercury, commit them, review history
change...
It also allow to do anything that you could do from command line.
It is nice since you can see revision history in a table below the current
file you're editting.
