CVS Plugin for Atom - atom-editor

Is there any CVS plugin for Atom? I've searched for one through the application, on google, etc. and it just seems to have no support for versioning with CVS. Can someone confirm this?

Since I didn't get any responses for this over here, I posted the same question on Atom's own forum and it seems like there are no CVS-supporting packages. One possible way is to use a terminal package to run CVS commands as described here.

Posting this just so that in case someone else has the same question, at least they know this 1 alternative to a CVS plugin.

Is there any online compiler API such that if I input the source code, it would return the results (or any errors) upon compilation?

I am building an online code storage platform for competitive programmers and need the code be executable on site. So I would require some online compilers which if provided with source code may return the results.
N.B: The compiler IDE itself need not be visible, I just want the results.
I got the answers. HackerEarth provides such facilities. Try out the following links - HackerEarth V3
And if theres anyone working on Node.js, explore this HackerEarth - Node.js
Thanks anyone who tried to help.
I have used https://rextester.com/main
Its free and almost every language available
Edit : its paid now. Its seems to be author didn't get much donation.
have you tried JDoodle Compiler API - https://www.jdoodle.com/compiler-api/

Techniques or tools to faciltate work in 2 o more versions of a same software

I just finishing working in a Wordpress plugin. This plugin is split in 2 versions (standard and premium). The difficult start when I have to solve bugs that are common to both versions.
Currently I proceed like this:
Unpack one version to the Wordpress plugin dir, debug, pack again.
And then the same for the another version.
Not so painful but what really should be ideal is work only over one code and then send the changes to both versions at the same time. More over: automatically zipping and sending by email through a bash script or similar should be the heaven on Earth.
I use Linux and Netbeans (can manage git, mercurial and subversion) but no need to be involved in the solution.
THX.-
More over: automatically zipping and sending by email
Zipping what? Sending where?
At least sending is dependent from "other" side, which have to handle it
Without describing more detailed used workflow I can't see ways to answer on question. Are both versions related by code (i.e Premium is patches on top of Standard /or vice versa/)? Do you use any SCM now? Do you use branches? Can you use hooks in VCS-of-choice?

Wordpress Atom Publishing Protocol/XML-RPC documentation?

Is there documentation on using these protocols anywhere? I can't seem to find any and searching for tutorials, they're basically non-existant.
Any idea where I should start looking?

How to use CVS on Unix

I'm quite pretty new to the concept of CVS. However, I want to start using CVS and thus need to 'check-in' some scripts. I'm using a UNIX server and I know that CVS is installed, since doing a
cvs -v
Gives me the correct version number installed. Now the problem I have in is finding documentation to use CVS. Is there an online tutorial/FAQ someone can recommend. I've scoured Google for information and all I come across are posts for installing CVS ...
What I'm really looking for our sample commands taking a beginner from scratch like Logging in etc.
The meta-answer to your question is not to use CVS, unless you're participating in a project that's already using it. Even the CVS maintainers, as far as I understand, don't recommend it for new projects, but recommend svn instead. If you're being obliged to use it, then this answer isn't helpful; sorry.
If the decision is up to you, then you have alternatives:
svn is the system which is most similar to CVS (as noted in another answer).
Mercurial is a distributed version control system, but the distributed features aren't hugely important if, as your question vaguely suggests, you're working on your own.
Git has broadly the same model as Mercurial.
There are others (including at least bazaar and darcs), but those are the big three.
All of these are heavily used in both small projects and big ones.
I now tend to recommend Mercurial to people, and that's the one I predominantly use myself. There are holy wars possible about this, but I feel that's the one which has the best tradeoff between flexibility, good design, and usability (there's a longer version of this answer...!)
Update: there's a very good Mercurial introduction by Spolsky, which is well worth reading for rationale and pointers.
Use svn instead, lots of documentation for that.
Hmmm... a quick Google search for cvs tutorial returns this as the second hit:
http://www.linux.ie/articles/tutorials/cvs.php
I've quickly glanced over it, and Chapter 3 (Basic CVS Usage) starts with "Logging In" and seems to come pretty close to what you need. If you have any concrete questions, feel free to ask.

Anyone know of a good free patch creator?

Does anyone know of a good patching program that is free? You know, one that can take a directory with your old program in it and compare it to a directory with your new version, and spit out a patch that is only the difference between the two?
Also, I am looking for something that can patch the entire directory, not just one exe.
EDIT:
Thanks for the answers, but I am looking for an end user patch for product updates. Nothing to do with the source.
There is Binary patch and diff, which is free, Windows port available.
I've never used this but it is free. It might be worth a try:
Patch Maker 1.2.
A list of tools here reveals a few marked as "free".
Dispatcher: will use an updater GUI as well. They have a quick demo video on their site.
The best tool I've seen for this purpose is Visual Patch 3.5 . It provides the same functionality that you've mentioned. Although it needs to be purchased since it's not free software.
If you are using Subversion, SmartSVN can create a patch for directories (recursive and all) for the files changed since the last commit. I understand this is only a partial answer and it's not CLI, but it's a really good tool if you deal with an SVN repo here.
