How about SQLlite? I am looking for a reasonable (easy to
install/maintain) DB that runs without a server, on Linux and Windows,
and has an existing TCL interface. I currently use CodeBase (a dBase
thing with query, sort and such capabilities). But I need to do more
lookups, searching and sorting in a major application. Before just doing
these in CodeBase, I thought I would explore any other options. Any
useful and reasonable pointers are welcome.
