The BBDB
========

   This section discusses the basics of the BBDB - an overview of the
database's layout, and a discussion of the basic BBDB manipulation
commands.

   The database itself lives in a file which is named by the variable
`bbdb-file'.  If this variable is not set, the database is assumed to
be in `~/.bbdb'.
