+.SH NAME
+tdb - trivial database
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+A database similar to gdbm which allows multiple simultaneous writers.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This is a simple database API. It was inspired by the realisation that
+in Samba we have several ad-hoc bits of code that essentially
+implement small databases for sharing structures between parts of
+Samba. As I was about to add another I realised that a generic
+database module was called for to replace all the ad-hoc bits.
+.sp
+I based the interface on gdbm. I couldn't use gdbm as we need to be
+able to have multiple writers to the databases at one time.
