L - The file is locked. +Modification status is by content (using a SHA1 hash) rather than date. +Thus, if you make changes to a work file in your editor, then undo +them, the file's status returns to '='. + You can usually recover of file from A, L, and ! status with src checkout. A and L statuses should only occur if you have used RCS directly on a file, or if you have called 'src add' manually. -- 2.43.0
