PgBrowse ver 1.1 is a generic Postgresql database browser that works on
Windows, Macintosh and Linux platforms that is written in Tcl/Tk.

A couple of features that help differentiate this (free) product.

1) No postresql software is actually needed on the client. ( but
both functionality and speed will suffer).

2) PgBrowser can display graphical images stored in the database
as bytea or large objects (via the Img package).

3) PgBrower supports SQL libraries of your favorite queries. At startup
PgBrowser looks for "~/SQLScripts" and builds a menu of all members of
the directory that end in ".sql". Subdirectories will generate the
appropriate submenu.

4) PgBrowser supports a "history" of queries/commands passed to the
backend. Previous commands can be easily recalled from the keyboard.
Gracefully exiting the program will cause the history to be stored
in "~/SQLScripts" as HiStOrY.tcl. This file will be "sourced" at
program startup to recover the command history.

5) If PgBrowser is running on a Mac or Linux system that has
"psql" located in a standard location, it is possible to execute
"psql" commands from within PgBrowser.

Suggestions for improvements and bug fixes gladly accepted.

Thanks,

Jerry
