Hi, I felt very happy when I found out about the existence of Glom a while ago.
Screenshots look good, the website looks good, and when I tried it the first time I was happily surprised that dealing with the database was so easy. Tonight I made a start with creating my own customized layout (With the PPA packages on Ubuntu Jaunty), and that went pretty good. I was wondering about a command-line parameter to directly connect to a database in the network, as I find opening a connection to a running PostgreSQL server quite confusing after starting Glom. Would it be hard to implement a parameter for that ? Or is there a work-around for it somehow ? It would make the implementation of Glom in an office setup with 1 central PostgreSQL server so much easier. p.s. I was manually copying the names of fields from a FileMaker database, and I noticed that the character & gave an error, I tried the + sign instead and that seemed fine so far. Are there certain characters in Glom and/or PostgreSQL that needs to be avoided, just like avoiding characters like ! ? and whitespaces is best to avoid in directory names ? _______________________________________________ glom-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/glom-devel-list
