Free visual report designers software for linux

Visual REGEXP project can easily design and debug regular expressions by providing a graphical visualization of the expression and its matches on a sample of your choice.
Version restrictions:
- some regexp can consume a lot of CPU time. This seems to be caused by the use of -all, -inline and -indices flags together.
- when a subexpression is not matched (empty match), the last character of the previous match are coloured. This is due to a problem in Tcl (bug submitted to Scriptics).
Enhancements:
- new version done by Martin Lemburg. Many thanks, Martin.
- it is now a tcl 8.5a4 starpack
- GUI layout changed to be based on a paned window
- GUI code looks different, to be more ergonomic
- the informational labels (replacements & matches) are now sunken
- there are now additional the "first" and "last" navigation buttons
- there is a new option to navigate through matches or matches and submatches
- the displayed count of matches is changed to display the current and the count of matches used for navigation (probably changes, if the new navigation option is changed)
- the replace widget is disabled on startup
- the tcl console is added to the help menu
- the key bindings inside the regexp text widget changed a bit to allow for expanded regexp (-expanded or (?x)) to contain tabs and newlines. Tabs are created with Control-Tab and newlines with Control-Return. Additional with Control-C|V|X (not c|v|x) it is possible to use the clipboard like with Control|Shift-Insert, Shift-Delete.

Quill is a visual Web interface designer based on QuiX, Porcupines integrated XML User interface Language.

It took us quite longer than we expected but here it is. Quill is a visual web interface designer based on QuiX, Porcupines integrated XML User-Interface Language. We believe this is a major leap for the web interface design process, as it has become almost identical to this of a common desktop application.

This is an alpha release and as such there are a lot of missing features, but generally you can get things done a lot faster and easier than before. This release supports almost every QuiX widget, giving you full control over it, exhibiting all of its editable properties.

You can also define subtotals, levels and a grand total for the report, merge the data into a document, generate address labels, or even generate a complete ER-diagram from your database.
