Hello everybody,

tsql4mk Tiny SQL for Metakit 0.1

It is a console application and a library in one starkit!

DESCRIPTION

tsql4mk is an experimental tcl-library and a console application for
executing sql-statements against Metakit databases. It implements a subset
of SQL92. tsql4mk uses Jean-Claude Wippler's Oomk and William Duquette's
"snit" (Snit Is Not Incrtcl), version 0.97. The api is modelled after R.
Hipps great SQLite http://www.sqlite.org. 

LIMITS

The main limits of tsql4mk against SQLite are:
    * much lower speed, although not measured yet (layer on a layer ...)
    * only a small subset of the sql-language is implemented
    * limited join capabilites
    * no NULL is known
    * no warranty of any kind
The advantages are:
    * no compilation required if you use the tclkit [1] runtime
    * console, library and documentation are in one file -> easy
installation and deployment
    * yan can start with tsql4mk and later on switch to SQLite
