NAME

    dump_ndbm - Dump and undump a NDBM file

DOWNLOAD

ndbm_dump

SYNOPSIS

        # Dump a NDBM file
    dump_ndbm dbm_file >data.dump

        # Undump a dump into a NDBM file
    dump_ndbm -u data <data.dump

 Options:
   -h     get help
   -v     be verbose
   -u     undump (convert a dump into a NDBM)

DESCRIPTION

dump_ndbm reads binary data files created by Perl's NDBM module and dumps them in Data::Dumper format. This is useful if you want to peek what's inside a NDBM data file.

If you save the output of dump_ndbm in a file, you can even edit it: dump_ndbm can also convert Data::Dumper output back into a NDBM file if called with the -u option.
