That said, I've enjoyed using Carlo Strozzi's NoSQL program in the past. It's not NoSQL in the current sense of the word. It's a plain text database that stores data in delimited text fields -- e.g. tsv or csv. Create those fields however you want. I just used rlwrap/readline in a simple shell program for input. It does the basic relational database things, but all with plain text. A text editor will work just fine for data entry, and for viewing it later. It will be around as long as Linux commandline utilities are around.
Your data can be viewed in a line-oriented or list-oriented fashion -- the program does the conversion for you in commandline fashion. And you can view everything in a text editor. I think it's just a bit of code tying together a bunch of standard Linux commandline utilities. It's not in a lot of repositories these days. But back when, I found it quite handy for working with line-oriented tabular data. It was the guts of a bailing wire and bubblegum program I wrote to create reinforcing steel barlists back when I only thought I knew what I was doing. My ignorance persists but now I'm aware of and at peace with it.
