I need some info. and advice about a simple database program for Suns! I tried to use Refer but found bugs. For example, the minimum number of characters that indexbib considers a word (default:3) could not be changed (using the mtab -l option). Indexbib behaved unreliably if this option was set to a number other than three. The bug was reported to Sun but I am still left without a DB program. Do you know of simple public domain database program(s) for storing literature references? I am also curious if there exists a Sun version of dBaseIII. Please e-mail me your reply. Thanks for the help. --------------------------------------------------------------------- NAME: Nicholas Tarnoff USMAIL: NIST(NBS) Bldg. 220 / Rm B127 Gaithersburg, MD 20899 TELE: (301) 975-3464 ARPA: tarnoff@cme.nbs.gov FAX: (301) 975-4091 UUCP: uunet!cme-durer!tarnoff ---------------------------------------------------------------------
