+     $ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@egcs.cygnus.com:/cvs/guile login
    At the prompt for `CVS password:', type `anoncvs'.
    Once you have logged in, your password is saved in ~/.cvspass, and you
    will not need to enter it again.
 3) Check out a module:
-     $ cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@egcs.cygnus.com:/egcs/carton/guile-home/cvsfiles checkout guile-core
+     $ cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@egcs.cygnus.com:/cvs/guile checkout guile-core
    This should create a new directory `guile-core' in your current
    directory, and populate it with the current Guile sources.
