  • Perhaps in the age of the Internet, didn't people use to write their own 'database' systems, so they could keep track of addresses, records and groups of scouts?

    I have seen quite a few of those in Comal 80 and similar ;)
    • Comal? Wasn't that the Pascal on the Compis computers solely used in schools?
