What is it?
-----------
dbext.vim : Provides database access to most databases.
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=356

This plugin contains functions/mappings/commands to enable Vim to
access several databases. Currently Mysql, PostgreSQL, Ingres, Oracle,
Sybase Adaptive Server Anywhere, Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise,
Microsoft SQL Server, DB2, RDB and Interbase are supported.  If you
have a Perl enabled Vim, it also allows database connections via DBI
and ODBC.
It abstracts database access, so the same Vim commands will produce
the same output regardless of the database you use.

What is new in 9.00?


New Features
------------
- Added the ability to set and store SQL variables for each buffer.
This will reduce prompting for statements which are often re-used.
Added support for listing and deleting SQL variables.   Initial
prototype by Garrison Yu.
- Added option, g:dbext_default_variable_remember, to control whether
SQL variables should be stored when prompted.
- Improved the parsing of SQL statements to account for procedural
language.  If a IN, OUT, INOUT or DECLARE statement is found prior to
the use of the variable, it is stored for later use.  When the
variable is encountered, if the declaration was found we skip
prompting for it's value.  This should reduce the number of prompts
you receive when executing SQL (i.e. Functions, Procedures, Events,
Packages and so on depending on the naming convention you use for your
variables.
- Updated the tutorial and added more links to different sections see
|dbext-tutorial-variable|
- Added VB filetype support (Garrison Yu).
- Added escaping to allow specifying an new Oracle URL syntax for
server connection parameters (Anton Sharonov).
- Renamed DBCloseResults, DBOpenResults, DBRefreshResult,
DBToggleResultsResize to DBResultsClose, DBResultsOpen,
DBResultsRefresh, DBResultsToggleResize to be more consistent.

Bug Fixes
---------
- You are often repeatedly prompted for connection information.  This
change reduces the number and allows you to cancel out of the prompt
dialogs.
- Added an unconditional quit command to exit out of Oracle's SQLPlus
(Anton Sharonov).

Enjoy, and remember feedback always welcome.
