Add glom, a GUI RAD database designer thinger app.
It won't build on 4.X because of some sigc++ weirdness. Somebody
who's interested should look into it!

You can edit +and search the data in those tables, and specify field values in +terms of other fields. It's as easy as it should be. + +The design is loosely based on FileMaker Pro, with the added +advantage of separation between interface and data. Its simple +framework should be enough to implement most database +applications. Without Glom these systems normally consist of lots +of repetitive, unmaintainable code. + +Glom-specific data such as the relationship definitions is saved +in the Glom document. Glom re-connects to the database server +when it loads a previous Glom document.
