"""Generic interface to all dbm clones.
Use
import dbm
d = dbm.open(file, 'w', 0o666)
The returned object is a dbm.gnu, dbm.ndbm or dbm.dumb object, dependent on the
type of database being opened (determined by the whichdb function) in the case
of an existing dbm. If the dbm does not exist and the create or new flag ('c'
or 'n') was specified, the dbm type will be determined by the availability of
the modules (tested in the above order).
It has the following interface (key and data are strings):
d[key] = data # store data at key (may override data at
# existing key)
data = d[key] # retrieve data at key (raise KeyError if no
# such key)
del d[key] # delete data stored at key (raises KeyError
# if no such key)
flag = key in d # true if the key exists
list = d.keys() # return a list of all existing keys (slow!)
Future versions may change the order in which implementations are
tested for existence, add interfaces to other dbm-like
implementations.
The open function has an optional second argument. This can be 'r',
for read-only access, 'w', for read-write access of an existing
database, 'c' for read-write access to a new or existing database, and
'n' for read-write access to a new database. The default is 'r'.
Note: 'r' and 'w' fail if the database doesn't exist; 'c' creates it
only if it doesn't exist; and 'n' always creates a new database.
