Description

A shareware database engine sold as a developers tool rather than an end user database. Originally an OS/2 product that primarily had support for Borland C/C++ and used xBase compatible .dbf files as storage containers, over time it gained bindings to other languages, including notably a rather strong REXX front end called Bullet/REXX in addition to ports to other operating systems.

No one really knows what happened to Bullet or its developer, but the OS/2 vesion disappeared from his website one day and while 40th Floor released some minor updates to Bullet versions for other operating systems there are no known versions beyond v3 for any operating system.

Version

  • Last version: 3.0

Known add-ons

  • Bullet/REXX - REXX front-end.
  • Validate - Database integrity checker, works with any xBase/dBase database.
