Juan, there is no magic to do CVS.  But it works only with Snd, not
with sndlib or CLM.  The last lines in snd/README.Snd give
corresponding advice.

For example, if you have a directory ~/src.

  cd ~/src
  cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.snd.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/snd login 
  # press enter for password
  cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.snd.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/snd co cvs-snd

and after finishing you have a directory ~/src/snd (or ~/src/cvs-snd,
I'm not sure; you can rename it like you want).  The next day

  cd ~/src/snd (or even ~/src/cvs-snd)
  cvs update

That's all.  The user-side is very easy, unfortunately the
maintainer-side obviously not, like Bill said.

A circumvent for sndlib may be: untar and configure sndlib.tar.gz and
do softlinks of relevant files (snd/*.[ch]) from the cvs-snd tree to
sndlib's tree.  But from time to time you may download sndlib.tar.gz
to update the configure* and config.h.in files too.
