The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:

  modid:       Filter::SQL
  DSLIP:       idpfp
  description: Gives a regex style interface to SQL queries
  userid:      JSMITH (James G Smith)
  chapterid:    7 (Database_Interfaces)
  communities:
    [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  similar:

  rationale:

    Some people are scared by the `complex' interface the DBI presents.
    By making a simpler syntax, people might be more likely to consider
    Perl for SQL work.

    For example, given proper setup (yet to be determined), the
    statement

    my(@results) = ($table, $user) =~ sql{SELECT * FROM ? WHERE
    username=?};

    will result in @results possibly being a tied array with access to
    the results of the SQL query. The bound elements are substituted in
    as usual, with $_ or @_ being the default argument(s) (yet to be
    determined).

  enteredby:   JSMITH (James G Smith)
  enteredon:   Mon Jul 30 21:12:09 2001 GMT

The resulting entry would be:

Filter::
::SQL             idpfp Gives a regex style interface to SQL queries JSMITH
