I got all the data in an array of structs that have integer member
for the article id.

They're just messy.  And I don't know if they are go on the stack
or not.

Not using system().  The code does all parsing and writes.
Right now it's just walking the bytes and comparing, but
I'm considering using the regex library.  Header extraction
is easy enough without it though.

Holy shit!  I wrapped the inserts in a transaction and now it does 2000
inserts in half a second.  And that's big inserts -- full headers in each
record for 1000 of them. I think DFS gave me that pointer once before,
and I forgot it.

I need to strip those trailing newlines out somewhere in the code.
