I have no clue what the batch*.pl files are for.  Can someone enlighten me so I
know what I'm looking for?

Comment 2

[cls]

The batch files contain the list of checkins.  The format looks like:

$::TreeOpen = '1';
$::LastGoodTimeStamp = '28800';
$::CloseTimeStamp = '28800';
@::CheckInList = ('::checkin_XXXX_YYY', '::checkin_AAA_BBB', .... );
$::checkin_XXXX_YYY{'person'} = 'username';
$::checkin_XXXX_YYY{'otherattribute'} = 'value';
$::checkin_AAA_BBB{'attribute'} = 'value';
....

Obviously, there's a misquote somewhere.  I'm going to guess that it's in the
@::CheckInList.  Also, the /registry/ tree was never pulled and setup.  Bonsai
needs that as well.  We might want to think about moving that into bonsai in
another bug.

Fixed.  batch file was truncated, by the look of it.  It stopped in the middle
of a string.

Thank you! It seems working without any problem.
