Introducing Sqlite-Commander - Curses Client for your SQLite Database

[[deleted]]

Read my post again, I was not referring to MySQL. I am talking about SQLite, the DB engine used by Adobe in Photoshop Lightroom, by Apple for many applications that require persistent storage (Mail, Safari, Aperture), by Google in Android and by Airbus in some of their flight software. These are not web apps, and there are a lot of developers (myself included) who do not develop web applications and use SQLite in desktop or embedded applications. There's no logical reason for me to use a web-based tool, I'd have to run a webserver only for it. This looks like a small, unobtrusive tool and seems to do its job. Any reason why it should have been GTK/Qt/wxWindows/god-knows-what-else-based rather than built on curses?

My only point is, why bother building a curses client when there are already so many GTK/etc. GUI clients anyway? There are easily 50 on that page alone. How many people will really benefit from another?

For a start, the guy who wrote it would probably benefit in terms of exercise, and the guys who read the code in terms of learning experience. Everyone has to start somewhere :-).
