Interesting. That would explain the recent Cygwin announcement of the need to use the conversion program following the recent changes to gdbm. So I take it that there's some benefit seen in using gdbm; presumably related to performance? But that for some reason it's not considered the right choice to make it the default for Unix. (Perhaps because Unix people prefer to use plain text where possible, to leverage from all those existing plain text utilities.) luke _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
