ratexdb – Database reports using LaTeX and Ruby

This is a com­pat­i­ble rewrite of LaTeXDB (by Hans-Ge­org Eßer) in Ruby.
It is a pre­pro­ces­sor which per­forms SQL queries on a database and cre­ates LaTeX code for the re­sult­ing rows. Ra­texdb im­ple­ments a few im­prove­ments, e.g. reg­exp post­pro­cess­ing, com­mand-line op­tions, some pro­tec­tion against SQL in­jec­tion, re­place­ment of LaTeX re­served char­ac­ters.
ra­texdb is no longer be­ing de­vel­opped; it's re­place­ment is nla­texdb.
