I am happy to announce the first release of the GNU recutils, version
1.0.

The release can be found in the GNU ftp:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/recutils/recutils-1.0.tar.gz

Alternatively, http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/recutils/ will automatically
redirect to a nearby mirror.

GNU recutils is a set of tools and libraries to access human-editable,
text-based databases called recfiles.  The data is stored as a
sequence of records, each record containing an arbitrary number of
named fields.  Advanced capabilities usually found in other data
storage systems are supported by GNU recutils: data types, data
integrity (keys, mandatory fields, etc) as well as the ability of
records to refer to other records (sort of foreign keys).  Despite its
simplicity, recfiles can be used to store medium-sized databases.

Please see the GNU recutils homepage for more information:
http://www.gnu.org/software/recutils

The GNU recutils suite comprises:

- A texinfo manual, describing the Rec format and the accompaying
  software.

- A C library (librec) that provides a rich set of functions to
  manipulate rec data.

- A set of C utilities that can be used in shell scripts and in the
  command line to operate on rec files:

  + `recinf' prints information about the contents of recfiles.
  + `recsel' prints records and field values.
  + `recins' adds new records to a recfile.
  + `recdel' deletes records.
  + `recset' manipulates fields.
  + `recfix' checks and fixes recfiles.
  + `csv2rec' converts comma-separated-values files to recfiles.
  + `mdb2rec' converts mdb files (used by MS-Access) to recfiles.

- rec-mode.el - An emacs mode to edit and navigate recfiles.  Still
  experimental.
