Does anyone know anything about Ndbm? Is it a reasonable choice for an application that needs a backend database, but the database is not the primary function of the app? What are the pros/cons? I was just wandering through man pages the other day and stumbled across it, so I was just wondering if it was worth learning the API. What else is there in terms of "standard" database API's for Linux ( and other unixes in general)? Is there a standard ODBC API for unixes/linux? Does anyone know of a good web page that talks about NDBM? All I found online were man pages. Also, what is "Berkley DB?" I ran across that while searching for ndbm. Thanks...
