It consists of several +utilities which, when used in concert, formulate and administer a database of +Problem Reports grouped by site-defined problem categories. It allows a +support organization to keep track of problems (hence the term Problem Report) +in an organized fashion. Essentially, GNATS acts as an active archive for +field-separated textual data. |
