I am aware of this command:
cvs log -N -w<userid> -d"1 day ago"
Unfortunately this generates a formatted report with lots of newlines in it, such that the file-path, the file-version, and the comment-text are all on separate lines. Therefore it is difficult to scan it for all occurrences of comment text, (eg, grep), and correlate the matches to file/version.
(Note that the log output would be perfectly acceptable, if only cvs could perform the filtering natively.)
EDIT: Sample output. A block of text like this is reported for each repository file:
