Announcing the availability of an interpreter with support for manipulation of Oracle and DIGITAL RDB relational databases.

Example usage:

siod -g0 -h15000 -isql_oracle.scm

> (oracle-sql-init "username" "password")
> (oracle-sql "select * from lab_data") ==>

  ((TAG_ID STATUS VALUE)
   ("FC101" OK 33.45)
   ("FC203" OK -23.33))

oracle-sql and rdb-sql are the convenience function interface, which are built in scheme on top of the more general Oracle Call Interface and RDB SQL Services. One interesting thing about this interface is that it allows you to perform operations such as CREATE TABLE that you could not otherwise perform in an RDB Runtime License configuration.
