   And is simple to handle too. By the way, there are no man   
   pages in other OS's, does that mean your app can run in   
   another OS & have your documentation always at the ready?   
   Or must you duplicate effort?   
      
   Its real easy to fall into the trap of thinking Linux is   
   the only ball game in town, I see Windows/Apple users   
   do it themselves all the time - not so tinybase.
