Tried both methods, but neither seemed to work - will have to play
with it some more.

It did however lead to finally reading this whole thread, and trying
out bash 3 and bash.diff.

I'd like to see another loadable sql interface - one for odbc
connections.  I haven't had a chance to play with Msql or Lsql yet,
but I'd like to try duplicating some of my SAL work under basp.

(Read as: trying to learn how to avoid relying on perl.  I love perl,
but bash is getting interesting.  ;-)


[BTW:  on the Which Editor is the Best OS thread:  I'd definately go
with GNU NanOs  ;-) ]
