Description:

Rekall is a database front-end, somewhat in the style of MicroSoft(R)
Access(TM). However, Rekall is not itself a database, and does not
include a database. By this we mean that data is stored somewhere else
in an SQL server, and Rekall is fundementaly just a tool to extract,
display and update that data (of course, it does lots more than that,
it does forms and reports and scripting and... you get the idea). It
is database agnostic, and does not have any preferred database in the
sense that Access(TM) uses the Jet database engine (although the
Windows version can use the Jet database engine via an ODBC driver).

Rekall can do lots of the things that you would expect of a database
front-end (or if it can't, let us know!). You can design and use forms
and reports, you can construct database queries, and you can import
and export data (actually, you can copy data, import is just copy file
to table, and export is just copy table to file). You can also create
reusable components which you can use in forms and reports, to reduce
application development time.

Rekall can be scripted using the Python language. You can arrange that
a script is executed when various events occur (for instance, when the
user changes the value of a control). Scripts can be associated
directly with the event, but you can also store scripts in script
modules for more general use. And, of course, you have full access to
all the modules that are available for Python. Plus, Rekall has an
integrated Python debugger with syntax highlighting.
