Leave of absence
Hi,
A happy new year to every one.
This last month I have been swamped by work, which has risen
to a cresendo resulting in a 10 day business trip starting
tomorrow. I have been quite lax in my duties as a deity team member,
and for that I apologize. I shall be back on the 10th, I hope, and
tradiotionally, work pressure usually slacks off slowly (July and
December are bad months for me -- peoples machine seem to blow their
tops more often in these months), and I should be able to take a more
active role in development again..
If any of my packages develop a critical bug, please do not
hesitate to "be friendly" to them ;-)

UNIX Shell is the Best Fourth Generation Programming Language It is
the UNIX shell that makes it possible to do applications in a small
fraction of the code and time it takes in third generation languages.
In the shell you process whole files at a time, instead of only a
line at a time. And, a line of code in the UNIX shell is one or more
programs, which do more than pages of instructions in a 3GL.
Applications can be developed in hours and days, rather than months
and years with traditional systems. Most of the other 4GLs available
today look more like COBOL or RPG, the most tedious of the third
generation languages. _UNIX Relational Database Management:
