I am attempting to compile Spacewar on my AT&T Unix PC (aka 3b1).
It references a library (dbm) that I don't have, and needs the routines:
dbminit, store, fetch, delete, firstkey, and nextkey.  What does dbm do?
Is source code available?  Can someone else with a Unix PC confirm that
I'm not supposed to have this library already?  Failing this, can someone
describe the functionality of this library so I can duplicate it.
Thanks in advance,
                                         Andrew Wilcox
