42 longDescription =
43 '' GNU dbm (or GDBM, for short) is a library of database functions that
44 use extensible hashing and work similar to the standard UNIX dbm.
45 These routines are provided to a programmer needing to create and
46 manipulate a hashed database.
47
48 The basic use of GDBM is to store key/data pairs in a data file.
49 Each key must be unique and each key is paired with only one data
50 item.
51
52 The library provides primitives for storing key/data pairs,
53 searching and retrieving the data by its key and deleting a key
54 along with its data. It also support sequential iteration over all
55 key/data pairs in a database.
56
57 For compatibility with programs using old UNIX dbm function, the
58 package also provides traditional dbm and ndbm interfaces.
