Hi Anthony,

Actually, Pydev (both open source and Pydev Extensions) provide 'a' and 'b'
-- if it's not showing to you, it may be that the pythonpath is not
correctly configured (see http://fabioz.com/pydev/manual_101_root.html for
instructions on how to configure it). As for 'c', I'm sure there's more than
one plugin that can give that to you within Eclipse (search google for
eclipse database plugins) -- I haven't used any of those, so, I can't really
comment on them.

Cheers,

Fabio
