- Yes, add me to the interested list. I installed that database package
- only because I was hoping it would help me organize things like bibtex
- databases, and when I found it could not I never used it since.
-
- So to make edb useful, you really need some supporting databases. The
- demos that come with edb are not very convincing most of that stuff
- is already done much more efficiently by the emacs calendar package
- and the rest can be done handily using hyperbole and wrolotex.
