According to the dbase spec, the first byte of each records values is either a space or an asterisk (*). If it is an asterisk, it is considered deleted.

See https://www.dbase.com/Knowledgebase/INT/db7_file_fmt.htm - Table Records:

The records follow the header in the table file. Data records are preceded by one byte, that is, a space (0x20) if the record is not deleted, an asterisk (0x2A) if the record is deleted.

At the moment this crate does not skip records marked as deleted this way.
