NAME

       kdb - key database access tools

       Elektra  provides  a  universal  and  secure  framework  to  store  configuration parameters in a global,
       hierarchical key database.

       The  core  is  a  small  library  implemented  in   C.   The   plugin-based   framework   fulfills   many
       configuration-related  tasks to avoid any unnecessary code duplication across applications while it still
       allows the core to stay without any external dependency. Elektra  abstracts  from  cross-platform-related
       issues with an consistent API, and allows applications to be aware of other applications´ configurations,
       leveraging easy application integration.
