- esql -
This is the homepage of esql, a simple sql monitor (I guess that's
what it's called).
- features -
esql is implemented in java, with just a bit of help from gnu-readline,
which Bernard Bablok (who's homepage is here) made some java bindings to.
feature-list
- persistent command history
- esql can talk to any database which have a jdbc library
- esql can switch between different databases during one session.
- esql reads urls, usernames, and passwords from files, so that
you don't have to remember them
- esql is gpl, and thus you can help implementing your needs
- esql runs on any platform running java, although readline support
might be bad on certain platforms.
- there must be more features...
- why -
esql came about while working in a company where everyone else was
working on windows and I'd chosen to work on linux. Therefore all the
database monitors were for windows, and most of the ones that exist
are very cumbersome to use. So when I found Bernards java-readline,
I figured I could make something that made my life easier...
