#

# ------------------------------------------ Purpose and description of program
#
# This program outputs one line per database entry.
# The line is to be a list of keywords separated by commas.
# The file is to be output as a text file on a browser (text/plain).
# This provides initial data by which to study common and uncommon
# keywords being used.
# Note that the authoritative copy of metadata "keywords" is in the
# .meta files that are native to the library server.  We rely
# on the assumption that it is okay to use the MySQL server (which
# should reflect this information) instead.  This is a speedier approach.
