level create . # create a new LevelDB if you don't have one yet
level put foo bar
level put lorem ipsum
level list
level keys -l 1
level keys -l 1 --reverse
level del foo -y

Troubleshooting

Some shells treat the ! symbol specifically. Thus, if you encounter sth. like that:

level put a!foo bar

=> -bash: !foo: event not found

It means you're using history substitution which you can turn off / on using set +H / set -H.
