Nope, my basic database is what is called random access in some languages,
simply reading a file consisting of records of fixed size and then showing
these records to the user.

Oh, well collections can be dotgnu-base or a separate lib. (BioChem333: if you
want it to be part of dotgnu-base please mail me.) Anyway I got the linked 
lists in DG-Base (they may come in handy and DG-Base can't link to anything 
else than pnetlib since it's a base library)  but I won't develop it further 
then.

I'm not so hot on p/invoking if we can avoid it, and getopt is easy enough
to do without p/invoke.

Anyway the stuff is checked into cvs now. Anybody wanting to contribute may 
contact me.
