This is useful when you have a perl script that needs to interoperate with a DBM file that a C program also uses. A fairly common issue is for the C application to include the terminating null in a string when it writes to the DBM file. This filter will ensure that all data written to the DBM file can be read by the C application. =head1 SEE ALSO L<DBM_Filter>, L<perldbmfilter> =head1 AUTHOR Paul Marquess pmqs@cpan.org
