Hi Shane, This sounds like a very worthwhile addition to Squirrel. I'm currently=20 starting to write the developers guide for squirrel so unfortunately at t= he=20 moment the best way of seeing how to write plugins etc. is to look at the= =20 code. There is some documentation in the squirrel-sql/doc/plugins.html fi= le=20 but its somewhat out of date. If you have any questions just send them to the dev list and either Johan= or I=20 should be able to answer them for you. --=20 Colin Bell http://squirrel-sql.sf.net On Thu, 1 Aug 2002 19:59, shane wrote: > Hi Johan, > > I started using Castor stuff about a year ago on one project but found = it > to heavy weight for the development I was doing...
