is a Firebird Administration tool. It enables you to create new Firebird database, create/modify tables, procedures, views, triggers, generators, roles, UDFs, Domains, and much more. Turbo Bird application is very easy to install and to use.

There are Linux 32/64 bit, Windows 32 bit, and Mac OS binaries. You can install the source and compile it using Lazarus in any other Plateform that already supported by Lazarus.

Download

Beta Version 0.9.2 2.May.2012

TurboBird for Linux 32 bit version 0.9.2

It is an executable file that you can download and run immediately. You need Firebird client library like libfbclient2. You can use Synaptic, apt-get, yum , or any package manager according to Linux distribution to install FireBird library from Internet.
If you still get unable to load library message, then you need to make a new link for FireBird library in /usr/lib directory like:
sudo ln /usr/lib/libfbclient.so.2 /usr/lib/libfbclient.so


In Ubuntu you may find it in another directory, just do search in the root:
sudo find -name libfbclient*

 then go to that directory and do the link:
sudo ln libfbclient.so.2 libfbclient.so

For newer versions of Ubuntu (starting from 11.10) you need to remove new scrollbar to make TurboBird work:
sudo apt-get remove appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-gtk appmenu-qt liboverlay-scrollbar-0.2-0


TurboBird for Linux 64 bit version 0.9.1

Linux 64 bit executable. For FireBird library problem see the above (32 bit version)


TurboBird for Win32 0.9.2

This is Windows 32 bit executable version. You need to install Firebird client library. If you already installed Firebird server on the same machine, then no need to install any additional library.
If you get Unable to load library message, then copy fbclient.dll from FireBird binary directory to TurboBird or Windows folder

This is Mac package for Turbo Bird. Compiled by Cem Zafer
