Here at Harris we have also been using mkid since the original posting and
have also made several enhancements to it, but I have never seen any updates
posted or heard anything about an official "clearinghouse" for mkid
enhancements...

If there are a lot of people using it, perhaps we should get together via
email, merge our enhancements, and post a newer version.

Enhancements I have made include:

   added 'pid' tool to do queries on the *names* of files in the database
   (all the other tools query the contents of files).

   added 'iid' interactive tool for doing DIALOG-like queries, forming
   sets of file names that match certain queries, anding and oring them
   together.

   lots of bug fixes (generally handles pathnames much more cleanly now).

   New scanners and an option to use 'popen' to start a separate program
   to use as a scanner rather than having to have all scanners linked in.

The main enhancement I want (but have never figured out how to do) is an
update option that can add new files as well as update the existing ones.
