Thank you very much for posting this.

Can you be more specific about the public domain version. where exactly or 
should we look for?

Also is there anything we could do about the incompatibilities of
ndbm and dbm.
DEC ultrix does not provide ndbm, while iris(SGI), sun, hp and others
all provide both.

Is there anything we should know.

Also we would like to know about similar package for VMS machines.

Thanks very much in advance.
