Found out why the thing was adding . and .., it's all in the new mdb 
code musicdb.cpp.   I added this to line 104
               length = di->native_file_string().length(); 
 
                                       	 
if(di->native_file_string().c_str()[length - 1] != '.')

This causes it to not add . and .., and it seems to scan through all of 
my files and generate a database. But zinf continues to say i have no 
database.  Also, why does zinf have two databases now for the same thing 
and two sets of code for the same thing (sometimes three) ?  Was the 
previous code not redundent and messy enough ? Or is it planned to gut 
the old code when the new code has been in zinf for a while, which by 
that time nobody remembers what code they needed to gut and where the 
new code is just like half of the lines of code in zinf are attributed 
to now.
