***IMPORTANT***
---------------
Currently LDBF is in pre-pre-Alpha (if you know what I mean ;)

are welcome. A couple of *important* things are not yet implemented. I
thought long about whether to upload this first release and finally decided
to do it - please don't expect too much for this 1st version and don't
flame me if you discover many bugs (email me instead :).
What is LDBF?
-----------
LDBF (light DBF server) is client/server dbms (if I may call it so)
compatible with FOXPRO CDX indexes.
Server part is loaded and waiting conection via TCP/IP or Unix domain
sockets.After client was connected it have access to databases
located on servers's machine.
Client's part is a C library that contain API to server via TCP/IP.
Library implements main suite of xBase operations and you
as I think may write any program that manipulating with DBF files.
