Hi Egbert and folks!
Thank you very much for the explanation!
For the record, I think ABCD is excellent software, especially for
librarians who are not afraid to go further as it offers many possibilities
with MX, CGI and other tools.
I used to work with Biblivre and today I see that the "freedom" of software
is not just about the source code.
Thank you again, I will take advantage of the holiday and take a look at
the manual and the tips that I have been given to explore ABCD more.
