Re^3: Effective data structures for join-type lookups

This does sound like a perfect case for an embedded app in JS. Would work on disconnected laptops, phones, or tablets. HTML5 has SQLite support native. JS isn’t so bad and it’s great to have chops in it.

There are a few Perl tools to help build such a thing. Static DB could be dumped from source SQL or other flat data via JSON for example.

I'm sure you're right - it probably would be great from that perspective. It's that "having chops" thing that's a bit problematic... although I've learned many of the languages that I know "on spec" - i.e., because they were needed for a specific job - learning JS just to code one little app like that would a bit much. :) Interesting to know about native SQLite support in HTML5 - thanks!
