Currently, the Global Database is a plain OS/2 INI file. This is maintained by the functions in /frontend/database.cpp.

The applications in the INI file are the five-part package IDs as specified with the PCK tag in the installation script.

For each INI "application" (i.e. installed package), there are several INI keys, not all of which have to be present (depending on the package).

The following lists the INI keys which are presently used (per package). "SZ" means zero-terminated string; "ASZ" means an array of zero-terminated strings, terminated by two zero bytes.
