							DBinfo
							======

DBinfo is a utility for xBase programmers and users to quickly determine
the structure of a DBF file without loading FoxPro, dBase or Clipper.
This utility cannot be used to modify the structure or contents.  It is
equivilent to a LIST STRUCTURE statement within any xBase package.

DBinfo is written in ANSI C, not C++.  It was written to be portable to
a variety of platforms including flavors of UNIX.  This serves my needs
because I store DBF files on a UNIX SVR4 server and FoxPro is not
available on this platform.

or have any suggestions for improvement please send me an e-mail at
