Jeff--

I really hate to say this, since I think it will result in me getting flamed, but 
if you want persistence in C (for the kind of application you're doing), you'd 
best link up to an RDBMS.  Otherwise, I'd say that your system is a really good 
candidate for being written in Java, which supports persistent objects painlessly. 
Look at gcj (I think someone is working on preliminary gtk+ bindings, or you could 
use swing if you have to run on winblows) if you're concerned about speed.
