integration with other scripts
Is it possible to integrate other scripts into dbman? Like let's pretend I want to add a virtual ecard or something, but people will have to log in first. Can I put another function into the script and just copy and paste the ecard script in there?

Also is it possible to pass the username and password to another script? So if I want to combine dbman and another script which also uses a login/password, people will only have to login through dbman and then don't have to re-login to access the other script.

It would depend on the script. I'm sure some could be integrated very easily, while others would be impossible, with most somewhere in the middle. I wouldn't suggest it for anyone not really familiar with Perl.

As to passing the login info, again, it depends on the script -- the structure of the password file, the way logins are handled, the way the information is used after login. Some would be easy, some impossible and most probably somewhere in between.
