        Erm, when I was thinking XBase, I was also thinking Perl (DBD::XBase). I
don't know but it might use a C lib. At any rate, have a look around, I'm
certain that free C code can be found for XBase. As for dynamic linking, any
programmer competant with a C compiler (not necessarily the language) can make
a shared object =). To become that competant with a C compiler (say gcc) it
takes all of five minutes of reading.

        The same way you do in any other OS. Wrapper in this context means a
function that simply calls another function. It sets up some variables or uses
some defaults or whatever. Sometimes they're implemented with macros. The whole
point is to save sanity for the programmer.

        See above.
