Utilitarian cross-platform MySQL GUI client

# Features

- No auto-commit

- Basic autocomplete of databases and tables

- Export output of queries to other programs - using `-- !program`, eg: `SELECT * FROM table -- !cat > output.txt` will save the output of the select query to output.txt

- Change existing values using GUI

- Cmd/Alt + Click on a foreign key opens the referenced row

- Cmd/Alt + Click on a table shows column details of the table

- GUI Connection manager

- AUR package `dibi-git`

# Usage

Connection parameters can be passed through as CLI parameters:

    dibi --host 127.0.0.1 --user root --password password --port 3306

Otherwise connections can be configured with a config file at: `~/.dibi.conf`. An example of the config file:

    [connection_label]

    host=127.0.0.1

    user=root

    port=3306

    password=password             # optional if password_cmd is given

    password_cmd=echo mypassword  # optional command that is ran to get connection password

    ssh_host=ssh.tunnel.com       # optional host to use for creating ssh tunnel

    ssh_user=root                 # optional ssh user for the tunnel

    [another_connection]

    ...

GUI interface can also be used to configure connections.
