| 43 | <li>All database files to be modified by an UPDATE, INSERT or DELETE are |
| 44 | now locked before any changes are made to any files. |
| 45 | This makes it safe (I think) to access |
| 46 | the same database simultaneously from multiple processes.</li> |
| 47 | <li>The code appears stable so we are now calling it "beta".</li> |

| 52 | (or threads) |
| 53 | can access the same database simultaneously. More work needed in |
| 54 | this area, though.</li> |

| 65 | <li>Added a <b>GLOB</b> operator: similar to <B>LIKE</B> |
| 66 | but it uses Unix shell globbing wildcards instead of the '%' |
| 67 | and '_' wildcards of SQL.</li> |
| 68 | <li>Added the <B>COPY</b> command patterned after |
| 69 | <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/">PostgreSQL</a> so that SQLite |
| 70 | can now read the output of the <b>pg_dump</b> database dump utility |
| 71 | of PostgreSQL.</li> |
| 72 | <li>Added a <B>VACUUM</B> command that that calls the |
| 73 | <b>gdbm_reorganize()</b> function on the underlying database |
| 74 | files.</li> |
| 75 | <li>And many, many bug fixes...</li> |
