thank you for the detailed explanation! I understand now how the problem is caused. > There are multiple ways to solve this in asynchronous programming.

It is really surprising to me that one is "condemned" to the asynchronous model in plain JavaScript and that an extra package is needed to avoid the asynchronous mode if desired. > To get the same result in CouchDB, you can pass in the `include_docs` > parameter set to `true`, then CouchDB will fetch the doc bodies for you in > the original `larch.list()` request and include the doc bodies inside the > result set. Using "larch.list({include_docs: true})" indeed does the trick, and the program works as expected. Thank you, Jan! Stephan
