Makes sqlplus a pleasure, eh? Yep. The nice thing is that if I'm editing something remotely and then run M-x sql-oracle, it actually executes the sqlplus on the remote host rather than the local copy. Add to that all my little bits of elisp extensions and sqlplus behaves more like a modern interface - command hitory with up/down arrow, command history maintained over multple sessions, improved formatting of output and I'm even working on a nice table column name completion support.
