on-stock is a small but useful inventory tool. As most of my small programs it
came to life from a real need of mine. There are many programs out there, big
programs, to keep track of your inventory. But all of these were to big and
complex for my own need. What I wanted was a small, preferably CLI-based,
inventory tool. So this program is the result of that. It may not meet the need
of other businesses, but for me it's more than enough.
Usage
Usage: ./on-stock [-l] [-s] [-m [-d [-n] [-f filename]
-l = list the articles in the database
-s = search for an article in the database
-m = modify a article
-d = delete a article
-n = create a new article
-f = specifiy a filename for the database
