Using TortoiseCVS with eclipse

I find SVN (subversion) a version control system far superior to CVS. In order to try to go around some of it's limitations, I'm using TortoiseCVS.
The default connection method used by eclipse is incompatible with TortoiseCVS.
To be able to use both programs to manage code on the client side, some steps are necessary:

I sucessfully used the method described on the links above ( Generate... and Making...). For loading the keys in Pageant I use a DOS script. The file is named loadKeys.cmd. It expects the key and pageant.exe to be in the same folder; Its contents are as follow:

C:\sshKeys\pageant.exe C:\sshKeys\ssh2RSA.ppk
