1. New Alpha FileIO routines (FILEMAN.E)
I have just completed a new set of routines which may (or may not)
simplify working with fixed-length database type files. This is somewhere
between an Alpha and a Beta, so I'd like to get some input from anyone
who finds it useful, please. Nothing is written in stone, and if I have enough
requests, I'll be happy to add or remove something from the program. The
url is http://2fargon.hypermart.net/misc/fileman.zip Enjoy!

Nice. I'm just suprised it add records when you choose to read.
You may want to distingush read and write modes. For example a file opened for
read, may never ever be written to. Just in case
we forgot, the library/euphoria will catch it. And reading from a read-only file
should cause no problem, while writing.. I
dunno.. does Euphoria allow that ?
