Daybed - A Library for Apache CouchDB

There are 3 methods to use the Daybed library:

1. The Main functions which give access to all CouchDB commands.
2. The Quick functions which allow for quick access to essential functions.
3. The Sync functions which synchronizes local documents with a database designated for the user.

Note: FastJSON has been appended to the library, and is used by default for JSON encoding and decoding.

• The primary commands have "fast." prefixed to the commands to differentiate them from the built in commands (mergJSON).
• I've modified the handling of numeric arrays so that order is maintained.
• I've added code to "fill in the blanks" with null if a numeric array has numeric gaps. (Optional)
• I've added local variables for "keep numeric" and "fill in the blanks" so they do not need to get passed back in as an argument.
• The original is maintained by Bob Hall here: https://github.com/bhall2001/fastjson

I recommend using FastJSON over mergJSON because:

• MergJSON only creates JSON arrays with numeric keys that go from 1 to N with no gaps. I'm experimenting with some commands to improve this, but for now it requires a few extra steps to work around.
• I've had difficulties with MergJSON in Ubuntu standalones. (Sorry, I REALLY need to fill out bug report for this)
• FastJSON is easier to use with Livecode-server. (No need to compile a stack and include the external)
