>
> What is PowerConsole
> --------------------
> PowerConsole is enhanced python interpreter that can host user defined
> commands. Uses pyparsing-based grammars for user commands to translate
> them into python calls, so it has limited support for mixing them with
> Python code.
>
> PowerConsole execution engine is designed as embeddable, extensible
> scripting environment without strong ties to any particular user
> interface. This approach:
>
>    * allows developers to create interactive consoles or tools with
> various user interfaces (CLI, TUI, GUI, web or even plain automation)
> that best suits the particular purpose on top of common functional core
> engine that could be easily extended beyond original design (see next
> point).
>    * allows developers to create task or domain-specific commands (or
> even micro-languages) that integrate seamlessly into any application
> built around the PowerConsole engine (see above).
>    * allows users of these tools and extensions to switch between tools
> or load extensions according to their immediate needs, and combine power
> of domain-specific commands with versatility of pure Python code.
>
> Core distribution also contains ready-to-use CLI interpreter.
>
> What is Firebird Pack for PowerConsole
> --------------------------------------
> Firebird Pack for PowerConsole is extensive package that enables
> PowerConsole to work with Firebird databases. Beside special
> database-related commands allows execution of arbitrary SQL statements.
> It also installs various objects to user namespace for direct database
> manipulations in python code.
>
> Requirements:
> -------------
> Python 2.5 or 2.6
> setuptools
> KInterbasDB 3.3.0 (for Firebird Pack)
>
> Installation:
> -------------
> Use easy_install from python setuptools package to download and install
> it. If you don't have setuptools installed yet, download and run next
> python script:
> http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py
>
> For new installation run:
>
> easy_install -f http://www.ibphoenix.cz/pwc/download PowerConsole
> easy_install -f http://www.ibphoenix.cz/pwc/download pwcfb
