		fipar on May 18, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Jailer – Data Browsing This looks interesting, but I don’t think the title uses the word Relational in the same sense that the Relational Model does. From the title, I was hoping to see a database with a relational (I.e., not SQL) language.

It's an ambiguous parse, I read "A (truly relational) (database tool)" and you read "A (truly relational database) tool".

I happened to glean the author's intent, but it's a real ambiguity.
