I see. That was enough for me at the beginning, too, but
then I needed to re-order the lines in the inventory, too. I like
to build by inventory files in the order they are in they are in
the instructions, noting any extra parts, but the "canonical"
version is ordered by part names. Handling that myself simply
was an unnecessary task if I have that nice database engine on
the very same laptop ;-)

I'll try to document the stuff and put it somewhere
accesible in the next few days, Rent-Paying-Work-Permitting (tm).
Maybe it is even time to create a sourceforge project for it.
Anyone any good ideas for a LEGO set / inventory database?

| (...) I just registered a new project at sourceforge and am waiting for final approval. After (I hope they do so ;-) ) the sourceforge admins approve the project, I'll start uploading my scripts. Regards, Hakan (24 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.db.inv)
