******    message to minivend-users from Darren Littlejohn <darrenl@cats.ucsc.edu>     ******


What is glimpse? I've got a shopping cart to build for a 50,000 part
distributor. He's got all the data in 4 big text files, and the old
shopping cart is all Perl. He wants to be able to search by product, part
no, etc. Should I NOT use Mysql for the db, and leave it all in a text
file? I guess I'm not sure what the advantages are of Mysql over a text
file setup..?
