Hello,
I've posted a help request in CVS forum: http://intellij.net/forums,
but no one replied.
I need to know how the cvs handles the files after it's checked out
using the co using *anonymous" option. The files are in writable format.
Does that mean if I make changes and issue another checkout, the changes
are overwritten?

With the Eclipse CVS client I would suggest that you use the
"Synchronize with Repository" item under "Team" in the context (right
button) menu for your project in the Package Explorer view.

In the "Team Synchronizing" perspective you can then see what has
changed and do whatever is appropriate in each case. I have found that
the various tools for updating and resolving conflicts work well.
