Hi,

I'm working on a new product for PostgreSQL (description below) and I'm 
looking for 5 to 10 Mac users who might be interested in beta testing. 
The first release will be for Mac OS X 10.2 or later. A Windows version 
will follow, most likely in November. Drop me an email if you can spare 
a little time to take a look and provide some feedback.

Thanks!

Power Tools for PostgreSQL

=====
pgEdit is a high performance SQL editor and development environment 
designed specifically for PostgreSQL relational databases. It supports 
Emacs style editing with Macintosh and Windows compatibility modes. SQL 
scripts can be executed directly from the editor without saving. pgEdit 
features include:


* SQL Syntax coloring specifically designed for PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL represents function bodies as single quoted strings which 
most editors render with a single color. pgEdit promotes better 
usability and correctness by using SQL syntax  coloring within the body 
of function strings. Keyword coloring is based directly on the source 
code of PostgreSQL.


* SQL source code execution without saving the file or switching 
applications

pgEdit can execute the SQL source code for (1) the entire buffer, (2) 
the highlighted region, (3) the current SQL containing the cursor, or 
(4) the current SQL line to the end of the file buffer.


* Direct integration with psql, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal

In addition to SQL, almost all psql commands are supported. This 
provides a powerful facility for examining, designing, and managing  
databases.


* Extensive and customizable editing facilities

pgEdit is based on a Emacs-like text editor with hundreds of commands 
available. A friendly interface is included to provide online 
documentation and customize the key bindings for any command. 
Familiarity with Emacs is not required; pgEdit provides the option 
emulate traditional Macintosh and Windows editing styles.


* Integrated documentation

Help in pgEdit is provided with context sensitive links to the online 
documentation displayed in your preferred web browser. The PostgreSQL 
documentation is also included with direct links to important sections 
provided in the pgEditHelp menu. The documentation for the SQL command 
nearest to the cursor can be retrieved by pressing a user configurable 
key sequence.

* Cross platform and easy to install

pgEdit is a native application for both Macintosh and Windows. It does 
not use Java or require installation of external libraries. You have 
the option of using the version of psql included with pgEdit or a 
different version installed anywhere on your hard drive.
