  Having registered the appropriate archives, you can check out
  project from them.  The command:

  [[tty
    % tla get lord@emf.net--2005/tla--devo--1.3.2 tla
  ]]

  creates a directory named `tla' containing a source tree checked
  out from the project archive.

  By way of pointing out some "arch vocabulary":

  [[tty
    % tla get lord@emf.net--2005/tla--devo--1.3.2 tla
                   ^              ^    ^      ^    ^
                   |              |    |      |    |
              "archive name" "category"|      |    |
                                       |      |    |
                                    "branch"  |    |
                             \_____ _____/    |    |
                                   v          |    |
                                   |      "version"|
                           category+branch         |
                             = "package"       "project
                                                tree" directory
                                                name
  ]]

  /Note 1:/ This operation doesn't get you a complete (buildable) tree
  for `tla'.   It happens to check out just the core code in `tla'.
  The next section describes how to checkout a complete tree.

  /Note 2:/ The first time you perform this operation for a given
  project arch will spend a lot of time populating your <"revision
  library" -- ../my/revlib.html>.   Subsequent operations on the 
  same project are likely to be much faster.
