! file is only included in releases after 1.0a4 - if you are using an earlier
! version, you can download it from cvs, or just go by the name(s) of the
! database file(s).  If you have a single file, probably called ``hammie.db``,
! then you are probably not using dumbdbm.  If you have three files (probably
! called ``hammie.db.dir``, ``hammie.db.dat`` and ``hammie.db.bak``), then you
! most likely are using dumbdbm, and should stop.
  
  Support for dumbdbm will be dropped in a future release.
