- These functions allow you to store records stored in a dbm-style
- database. This type of database (supported by the Berkeley DB,
- GDBM, and some system libraries, as well as a built-in flatfile
- library) stores key/value pairs (as opposed to the full-blown
- records supported by relational databases).
