Description

gdbm database files can be inspected or edited from shell workflows with a small command-line tool. This is useful for developers and administrators troubleshooting simple key-value stores.

Direct edits to database files can corrupt application state if the format or locking expectations are misunderstood. Work on copies when inspecting unknown or important data.

How to run
