The basic user interface is extremely simple. The novice only needs to learn two commands: ci(L) and co(L). Ci, short for "check in", deposits the contents of a text file into an archival file called an RCS file. An RCS file contains all revisions of a particular text file. Co, short for "check out", retrieves revisions from an RCS file.
