The Apache mod_websh module handles, among other things, database connections in a rather sophisticated way.

SEH 2005May17 -- Has this product been abandoned? No updates since the initial announcement. Pity if it has, it looks really interesting. I like the fact that it can be used as a standalone shell without a web server, for prototyping and sandboxing purposes (as opposed to Rivet AFAIK).
US 2005 May 18 -- No.There is still some development (bug fixes) going on. Don't use the 3.5.0 download from http://tcl.apache.org/websh/ , it's outdated and contains a few bugs. Rather get the CVS head:
cvs -d :pserver:[email protected]:/home/cvspublic co tcl-websh
Peter Newman 19 May 2005: Does anyone have a Windows binary (preferably 9x; alternatively XP,) for websh?
RB 4 Jan 2006: Websh 3.6.0b3 has been released recently. Unfortunately, still no Windows binary available. But at least it features a Makefile for VC 6.0 nmake. And source has been moved to Subversion[L2 ].
RLH 4 Jan 2006: I hope that when 3.6 is released it will have a binary for Windows.
For the head use
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tcl/websh/trunk websh
Latest build currently
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tcl/websh/tags/3.6.0b3 websh
SEH 20060104 -- FWIW, I compiled the 3.6.0b3 loadable module dll using the provided Windows makefile without problems. The module loaded into my Tcl interpreter (8.4.7 on WinXP) without error or complaint. I look forward to experimenting with it.
