=head1 NAME

WWW::RobotRules::AnyDBM_File - Persistent RobotRules

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 require WWW::RobotRules::AnyDBM_File;
 require LWP::RobotUA;

 # Create a robot useragent that uses a diskcaching RobotRules
 my $rules = new WWW::RobotRules::AnyDBM_File 'my-robot/1.0', 'cachefile';
 my $ua = new WWW::RobotUA 'my-robot/1.0', 'me@foo.com', $rules;

 # Then just use $ua as usual
 $res = $ua->request($req);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of I<WWW::RobotRules> that uses the AnyDBM_File
package to implement persistent diskcaching of F<robots.txt> and host
visit information.

The constructor (the new() method) takes an extra argument specifying
the name of the DBM file to use.  If the DBM file already exists, then
you can specify undef as agent name as the name can be obtained from
the DBM database.
