AltSQL is a way to improve your user experience with C, C, C and other tools that Perl has L drivers for. Currently written for MySQL only, the long term goal of this project is to provide users of the various SQL-based databases with a familiar command line interface but with modern improvements such as color, unicode box tables, and tweaks to the user interface that are fast and easy to prototype and experiment with.

It's best to use CPAN or L<cpanm|App::cpanminus> to install this application. Should be as simple as:

$ sudo cpanm App::AltSQL
