+:mod:`whichdb` --- Guess which DBM module created a database
+============================================================
+
+.. module:: whichdb
+   :synopsis: Guess which DBM-style module created a given database.
+
+.. note::
+   The :mod:`whichdb` module's only function has been put into the :mod:`dbm`
+   module in Python 3.0.  The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports
+   when converting your sources to 3.0.
+
+
+The single function in this module attempts to guess which of the several simple
+database modules available--\ :mod:`dbm`, :mod:`gdbm`, or :mod:`dbhash`\
+--should be used to open a given file.
+
+
+.. function:: whichdb(filename)
+
+   Returns one of the following values: ``None`` if the file can't be opened
+   because it's unreadable or doesn't exist; the empty string (``''``) if the
+   file's format can't be guessed; or a string containing the required module name,
+   such as ``'dbm'`` or ``'gdbm'``.
