Grandpa's MariaDB Terminal

A color-coded command-line client for MariaDB, a nicer alternative to the plain mysql client, built with the rich library as a birthday gift for my grandfather. One-step setup scripts for Windows, macOS and Linux create a virtual environment, install the packages and ask for the database password, which is stored base64-encoded in config.toml (edited with tomlkit so the file's comments survive) rather than in plaintext.
