There are a number of GNU elisp interfaces for RCS...the best I think
is from snow.white.toronto.edu, pub/emacs/rcs-cks.el.  Last update
apparently March 1.

I've modified it quite extensively to do tag file checkin-checkouts,
checkin of all checked-out files in a directory, and automatic
creation of branches for naive users who don't want to learn rcs
commands.  I would consider it not quite beta ready, but if anybody
wants it send mail.  Since I modified a version prior to March 1, I'll
have to merge my changes in with the new ones.  Sigh.  Anyway an
interface does make things easier for users.
