Re: [Comp-hist-devel] Step one towards python browser done

[Christophe F. <cfe...@en...>]

Do you plan to switch from the current file format to dbm or are we going
to convert it to dbm at link time?

I don't know exactly what dbm is. But I already thought how we could
handle the links in a sql database : the best means would be to use two
different tables : one which lists all the node with all the nodes but the
links and the other which associates a node name with a link
For example, we have :

node nodename 2000/04/12 xxx xxx xxx xxx

and in another table :
node node2
node node3
node node4

which indicates the nodes which node is linked to

I don't know if it is possible in dbm but it would be the easiest

Otherwise, for your python browser, are you going to use gtk for the
interface or something else?
Once again, I currently can't find enough time to improve my gtk browser
but maybe one day I'll add an editing option... if the python browser
doesn't already do this :-)
