[vox-tech] c code question

[Brian Lavender]

How about if you put each column into a list, and then after finishing,
iterate through all lists to produce the row? Only thing is that
everything will be stored in memory. But you could always add a bunch of
swap, and that will take care of it. :)

Add swap on the fly.

Or, use gdbm. Here is a read example.

Shouldn't be too hard to write data.
