GNU dbm is a set of database routines that use extendible hashing and
works similar to the standard UNIX dbm routines.
This is release 1.8 of GNU dbm.
To compile gdbm:
a) configure <config parameters like -prefix ... see INSTALL>
b) make
To compile the optional test and conversion programs:
a) make progs
To install the basic package:
a) make install
To install the optional dbm and ndbm compatibility headers:
a) make install-compat
(You might want to "make -n install" to make sure it will put things
were you want them.)
