Description

Usually when you have to store persistent data you don't need a full-blown database server, just an ASCII database would do the trick.

AsciiDB::Tag allows you to access a simple ASCII database using a perl hash variable. The database format is straightforward so you can edit it by hand if you need so. Each record is stored into a file, and a record is just a set of values tagged by the field name:

   \[Name\]: Jose A. Rodriguez
   \[Address\]: Granollers, Barcelona, SPAIN

The tie class provides a convenient way to read and update this kind of ASCII databases.
