    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).
