I am planning to write a small, non-bulky, easy to use and easy to port
application for my personal use.

There is lot of information I store on Google docs like commands, key words,
directory locations, script names etc. Pretty much everything which I use
daily.

Switching from shell to Web-browser is sometimes not so convenient.

Hence I am planning to store these information in flat files with some
keyword/switch and then use my application to parse and fetch the
information I am looking for.

Is there any better approach I can use instead of flat files like some
personal db etc. One of the concern I have with databases like MySQL etc is
that I would also have to install which would become a dependency and being
honest I also dont' have that huge of a data.

Does Perl have any standard database which comes installed with the standard
package ON ALL Operating Systems.

Feel free to share your thoughts.

TIA

Parag
