My favorite is Scriptella (http://scriptella.org/download.html http://scriptella.org/download.html) which recently just got its first update in around 7 years.
For what it does, it just worked, and for many uses cases, updates were never an issue.
- ejboy 7y agoAuthor of Scriptella here. Thank you for mentioning it! The product was neglected for many years, but I never was ready to finally press the kill switch. Hoping that one day I will have more time to work on it... I cannot promise active feature development, but at least keep it compatible with recent JDK versions. Let me know if you have any feature requests on https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/scriptella https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/scriptella or https://github.com/scriptella/scriptella-etl https://github.com/scriptella/scriptella-etl
- slantyyz 7y agoI think Scriptella is fantastic. It does one thing extremely well, and for me, that's all I can ask for.
