It is not possible to get the database as client is not ready for that 
(Can't help it - you know).

I am thinking - I will take the data in an array first - change it and 
flush back to file again. Is there any command to flush back the whole 
array in to file (each array element will become one line) or do I need to 
write one by one line ?
