Hello,

due to popular demand, a new version of dbf handling driver DBD::XBase
(0.155), which I just uploaded to CPAN, supports SQL functions length,
trim, ltrim, rtrim, concat and substr.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Changelog is like

0.155 Sun Nov  7 15:43:59 CET 1999
	XBase::SQL and DBD::XBase: arbitraty arithmetic expression
	possible in the select list. NAME attribute works fine for them.
	SQL functions length, *trim, concat and substr supported. Fixed
	bug in XBase::SQL causing bad division results. The DBD::XBase
	documentation revised.

	t/5_dbd_select*: tests extended.

	dbfdump: Accepts --SQL modifier to --info, prints structure
	of the table as a create table SQL.
