Does anyone have suggestions for database software? I'm thinking of something that lets the user create various databases with field/value pairs, and allows one to either do a search on the full database file, or on selected fields. What I have in mind is something similar to braillebase on the Blazie notetakers, or keybase on the braillenote, just to name a couple for those who are familiar with one or both. I'm running debian squeeze, but will upgrade to wheezy in the near future. So, I would prefer something which has a debian package. In my research I found gcstar, which looks like it should do what I want, except that it relies on gnome. I would really prefer something that runs from the text console, and can be used interactively, and from the CLI. Suggestions for such a beast would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
