Are there any helpful tools or libraries? There is a C package, "mdbtools", that will provide a starting point if nothing exists in ocaml. (The file, produced by the state government, used to be published in a different proprietary format which I had written C tools to read. I had already considered rewriting my tools, and this is a chance to write them in ocaml.) ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
