Summary: SQL Shell. It is intended as a replacement for the Sybase 'isql'.
Description:
Sqsh (pronounced skwish) is short for SQshelL (pronounced s-q-shell), it is intended as a replacement for the venerable 'isql' program supplied by Sybase. Sqsh is much more than a nice prompt (a la 'dsql', from David B. Joyner), it is intended to provide much of the functionality provided by a good shell, such as variables, aliasing, redirection, pipes, back-grounding, job control, history, command substitution, and dynamic configuration. Also, as a by-product of the design, it is remarkably easy to extend and add functionality. Sqsh can be used for make connection to any databases with TDS-protocol support (eg. MS-SQL or Sybase). This package is build with FreeTDS library (http://www.freetds.org).
