SQuirreL SQL client #180

Open ruebenramirez opened 9 years ago

ruebenramirez commented 9 years ago

I've used Navicat on Mac OS X in the past to connect to all kinds of database servers, but I've since switched to Ubuntu + DWM full time for my primary workstation. Up to this point I've been using the command line clients for MySQL and PostgreSQL, but it looks like I'll be maintaining some .NET applications for the near future. I have a windows VM for .NET development, but I would prefer to not have to kick that up every time I need a quick peek at the MSSQL database schema.

Enter the SQuirreL SQL client... Like most of you, I normally despise Java desktop apps but let's see how this'll work out, eh?

Wow, I must have bought navicat essenails on discount for mac through the app store, because I surely did not pay $160 for it!
