Gdbm works in a similar way to standard UNIX dbm routines. Gdbm is useful for developers who write C applications and need access to a simple and efficient database or who are building C applications which will use such a database. This version also supports ndbm and dbm emulation modes. This package provides the include files, link libraries, and library documentation."
