   This is a complete C++ template implementation of associative arrays.  They
provide, in a small package, much of the same power found in a database.
Specifically, complex structured data can be stored and quickly accessed via
a single unique text key.  Much of the concept and the syntax derive from the
AWK programming language.  See the journal article and the comments in the
header file more more details on usage and construction.

   If you have any questions or comments on this package, send me an
email note.
