after my question about visualization of SQL tables on perlmonks
http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=298959

i was pointed to a very nice tool i wanted to report further (thanks 
again, PodMaster):
SQLFairy
http://sqlfairy.sourceforge.net/
http://search.cpan.org/~kclark/SQL-Translator-0.02/lib/SQL/Translator.pm

"The SQL::Translator is a group of Perl modules that converts 
vendor-specific SQL table definitions into other formats, such as other 
vendor-specific SQL, ER diagrams, documentation (POD and HTML), XML, and 
Class::DBI classes. The main focus of SQL::Translator is SQL, but 
parsers exist for other structured data formats, including Excel 
spreadsheets and arbitrarily delimited text files. Through the 
separation of the code into parsers and producers with an object model 
in between, it's possible to combine any parser with any producer, to 
plug in custom parsers or producers, or to manipulate the parsed data 
via the built-in object model. Presently only the definition parts of 
SQL are handled (CREATE, ALTER), not the manipulation of data (INSERT, 
UPDATE, DELETE)."

definitely rocks!

greetings,
matthias
