ANN: DataBasin 0.8

Release: DataBasin 0.8

News?
The most important news is the separation of the core APIs that access 
Salesforce.com to a separate, LGPL's framework, DataBasinKit. This will 
allow anybody to write connected apps in Objective-C on MacOS as well as 
with GNUstep on Linux, BSD, Solaris and MinGW on Windows.
The most important feature instead is DataBasin ability to parse the 
SOQL query and thus rearrange the output fields in CSV files not as 
Salesforce returns them but as the user requested them. The same feature 
allows related objects (. notation) to be null and retain the correct 
columns in the CSV file.

Other news are:
*Select Identify supports LIMIT
*Customizable CSV file quoting and separator
*Support for COUNT and aggregate queries
*Object Inspector supports selection of values in cells

What is DataBasin?
DataBasin is an application that allows you to perform queries, update 
records, view fields of a single object/record or describe an object's 
fields properties to a file.
Most notable is the ability (Select Identify) to perform queries by 
supplying identifiers (IDs or a set of key fields) as input instead of a 
standard where clause.
