Great job and many kudos for the determination to maintain a tool for 11 years!

I thankfully have no use for the tool since I no longer have to code SQL - the world is a better place for it.

It raises the question how many more "bus tools"[1] are there? Tools maintained and developed by a single developer with whom, when hit by a bus, the tool would die.

[1] no offence meant but "bus developers" is the term I learnt, it seems a little cruel to speak of folks being hit by buses - is there something better nowadays?

I have heard something like “lottery factor” as a more pleasant term. Though personally bus doesn’t bother me.
