I understand.

It can be cut down, not qt-lib, not syntax highlighting...,to less than 1
Megabyte or less, but
this is not the main point.

I agree a thin/cross platform introductory gui may be great and very good
for Firebird. I think using wxWidgets and C++ is a hard (in time) job to
design a simple
gui with connection admin and executing sql sentences (using Delphi is
really easy).
But of course you obtain more cross platform and no dependence from Borland.
