modifying Shapefile dbfs

[P Kishor]

hmmmm... I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to edit Shapefile
dbfs. I am on Windows, and would like a Perl-ish way of doing this...
grab a feature, and change its attributes. Xbase and CAM::DBF, the two
DBF modules on CPAN can read, but not edit. Any pointers? Does OGR
have any way of doing this?
