NAME
make-file-index - creates a FramerD file index
SYNOPSIS
make-file-index filename size
DESCRIPTION
make-file-index creates a new empty FramerD file index in the file filename with at least size slots. A file index is an on-disk hashtable which can be incrementally read and modified. It is intended to support the association of single keys with multiple values and the low-cost addition of new associations with an existing key. At intervals, it may be helpful to reorganize the table by using repack-file-index(1).
OPTIONS

DIAGNOSTICS
