Show HN: Sublime Text Database Client

But if you are alt-tabbing, you no longer have the full suite of Sublime Text tools to work with. You don't have multiple cursors, and you can't use goto file, you don't get nice syntax highlighting, you can't select and execute SQL embedded in other source code files.

In the grand scheme of things, I think it all depends on how much you interact with a db. If you just run an odd command here and there, $30 may seem like a lot. If you work with databases for an hour or more a day, this could be a huge time-saver.

I don't know that I'd save that much time switching back and forth between sublime and workbench is my typical workflow. I gain a lot from the multiple cursors when building multiple insert/delete statements...but not sure what other situations where I could leverage this plugin to save time [with sql].

I am interested to see how "version 2" of this pans out.

For the record, workbench is not the end-all. It is quite clunky.

How is it possible anyway? Queries in source files almost always cannot be executed as such, because of placeholders/parameters. Or what am I missing?
