*** Glom
Glom is a GUI that allows you to design database table definitions and the
relationships between them. It also allows you to edit and search the data in
those tables. The design is loosely based upon FileMaker Pro, with the added
advantage of separation between user interface and data.
Glom uses the PostgresSQL database backend but it can not edit databases
that it did not create, because it uses only a simple subset of Postgres
functionality.
Here are some screenshots:

Glom is written in C++, with gtkmm, Bakery, and libgdamm.

*** Obvious/Known problems.
* There is no way to administer the users.
* The User Level is not dependent on database access rights.
* The Details view should show lists of related records directly among the regular fields.
* There is no printing/reports.
*** Changes
glom 0.8.8:
* Details Layout: Simpler, hierarchical layout. This allows
more complex layouts, and allows fields to appear more than
once on the same layout.
* Documentation: Added user manual, though it looks a
bit strange in yelp at the moment.
* Relationships:
- Avoid crash when fields of differerent types are used in
relationships.
- Actually delete relationships when the delete button is pressed.
