  1. """A dumb and slow but simple dbm clone.
  2. For database spam, spam.dir contains the index (a text file),
  3. spam.bak *may* contain a backup of the index (also a text file),
  4. while spam.dat contains the data (a binary file).
  5. XXX TO DO:
  6. - seems to contain a bug when updating...
  7. - reclaim free space (currently, space once occupied by deleted or expanded
  8. items is never reused)
  9. - support concurrent access (currently, if two processes take turns making
  10. updates, they can mess up the index)
  11. - support efficient access to large databases (currently, the whole index
  12. is read when the database is opened, and some updates rewrite the whole index)
  13. - support opening for read-only (flag = 'm')
