Direct Dbm Access

Synopsis:

There are times when it is desirable to directly access DBM, NDBM, or GDBM databases, for example, when reading or writing values to a database created with a different tool, such as Perl or TCL.

Meta-HTML provides low-level access primitives for such databases in addition to a higher-level, more generally useful abstraction (which is detailed in Database Commands).
