I wholeheartedly agree.

Nop.
CapFast under 3.12 uses a tool called e2sr (part of EPICS) to create short
report format data, then uses sf2db to generate db format (you can use dct
to generate binary format, too).

Under 3.13 e2sr is replaced by e2db that directly generates db format.

Cheerio,
Ralph
