Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. I want to have a record of my |
| 2 |
specimens and preparations, in a format that can be retrieved in various |
| 3 |
ways, sorted, and printed. A record, like a card file. Nothing |
| 4 |
compilcated, don't need a server. I'm thinking emacs data base. I guess I |
| 5 |
want database functionality without the complexities. |
