13 Description: Python CDB (constant database) library
14 D. J. Bernstein's cdb library adapted as a python extension module. You
15 probably already know that cdb files are mappings of keys to values (c.f.,
16 dbm and friends), designed for wickedly fast lookups and atomic updates.
17 .
18 This interface presents cdb files as (surprise!) mapping objects with a few
19 special features. In general, the module tries to mimic the functionality of
20 the normal cdb utilities.
