REAL-TIME NOTES / ANNOTATIONS OF THE PAPER:
{If you've contributed, add your name, e-mail & URL at the bottom}

Pronounced DAH-bo.
Ed Leafe /does/ like RDBMS's, unlike the Schevo guy.
Motivation: be able to do FoxPro-like stuff easily.

Scope
    Dabo currently wraps wxPython.
    It supports Firebird, Postgres, MySQL.
    UI stuff is decoupled, so you could write an HTML UI for it if you wanted,
        but he says it'd be a lot of work.

Demo
    f = dabo.ui.dConnection(f)

    crs = conn.getDaboCursor()
    crs.execute("show tables")
    dao.ui.browse(crs) # brings up a GUI window with a nice, wxGrid view of the
        results. You can click headers to sort, type to select, move columns,
        etc.

    crs.Table = "zipcodes"
    crs.addWhere("czip like '%888')
    crs. executeSQL()
    crs.getSQL() # returns the SQL


Can I host this so that other people can see it?

NOTES ON / KEY TO THIS TEMPLATE:
A headline (like a field in a database) will be CAPITALISED
    This differentiates from the text that follows
A variable that you can change will be surrounded by _underscores_
    Spaces in variables are also replaced with under_scores
    This allows people to select the whole variable with a simple double-click
A tool-tip is lower case and surrounded by {curly brackets / parentheses}
    These supply helpful contextual information.
