So... who wants a database?  No one?  Well, this one won't do your
taxes or draw pretty pictures for you-- this is the engine, working
with relations faster than you can say HoHoHo (it's Santa time, isn't
it? 8-} ).  Adds commands to C for adding, updating, deleting and
retrieving records from included-utility-built relations, designed
from close-to-english schemas.  It actually looks/feels a good deal like
one of Informix (c)'s line of products, from what I've seen.  But I
guarantee it costs less.  :-)

Verified to work with Amigas (designed for 'em) and Unix V -- haven't
had a failure yet, actually.  Technically it should work with IBM's
and Atari ST's and anything with a C compiler that does lseek and
read/write.  There are no real compiler-dependent tricks used in the
code, so it should be terminally spread-around-able.  There's a Makefile
included for Unix users, and a ReadMe for everyone.
