DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the dptsv commands.

       The  command  dptsv features mutual conversion between a database of Depot and a TSV text.
       This command is useful when data exchange with another version of QDBM or another DBM,  or
       when  data exchange between systems which have different byte orders. This command is used
       in the above format. name specifies a database name.

       The subcommand export reads TSV data from the standard input.   If  a  key  overlaps,  the
       latter  is  adopted.  -bnum  specifies the number of the elements of the bucket array. The
       subcommand import writes TSV data to the standard output.
