+Tora (Toolkit for Oracle) is a graphical program installed in the CSCI Linux lab. It can be used to connect to a variety of databases, including Oracle.
+Tora as it is installed may have a few quirks and bugs, and is in place as a supplement to sqlplus, not to replace it. If your assignment requires you to use sqlplus, use sqlplus instead.
