The DBT Handle.

While reading the C API reference for the Berkeley Database [now owned by Oracle] I came across a gem.

Storage and retrieval for the DB access methods are based on key/data pairs. Both key and data items
are represented by the DBT data structure. (The name DBT is a mnemonic for data base thang, and
was used because no one could think of a reasonable name that wasn’t already in use somewhere else.)
Key and data byte strings may refer to strings of zero length up to strings of essentially unlimited
length. See Database limits for more information.

I felt that this needed publication.
