Getting the version number in a "notify" message |

CVS gurus:
I have written a script (Perl) that is called via
the "notify" administrative file and it works great,
but I would like to include the new *version number*
of the file that was just committed in the notification
message that gets sent out. As far as I can see in
the CVS documentation (Cederqvist), this information
is NOT passed to the "notify" script by CVS (as it is
for other "trigger" operations). Can someone suggest
a way to find the version number that was most recently
committed? The information available is:
Repository location (absolute path)
Path within the repository
File name
Username that did the "commit"
I could probably resort to an RCS command ("rlog"?)
to access the "*,v" file directly, but I would rather
not. I thought maybe I could use the "cvs history"
command, but I do not have any experience with this
command and it seems to take about a dozen option
flags and arguments.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance. =:-]
