CHANGED: ok, mysql support is back again (upon requests). therefore there

are two different version of the script in the same time with
                the same features, one for mysql and the other one for the binary
                database.
ADDED:          Dump to textfile capability. Later on I want to dump it into a
                palm readable format, any help is welcome!
ADDED:          interactive mode.
CHANGED:        Better modularity, better code.
CHANGED:        note can now run without the need of a config file. If does not
                exist, it will try to work with default values.
ADDED:          sub num_bereich(), which allows one to specify more then one
                number for deletion or displaying (i.e.: "-d 1,4,7" or "-d 4-9")
