Description-en: GNU dbm database routines (command line tools)
GNU dbm ('gdbm') is a library of database functions that use extendible
hashing and works similarly to the standard UNIX 'dbm' functions.
.
The basic use of 'gdbm' is to store key/data pairs in a data file, thus
providing a persistent version of the 'dictionary' Abstract Data Type
('hash' to perl programmers).
.
This package includes following command line tools:
.
* gdbm_dump -- dump database content into system-independant format
* gdbm_load -- recreate database from dump, created by gdbm_dump
* gdbmtool -- view and modify an existing database or to create a new one.
