RQL — Say what no builder can

This is the part that is not convenience. RowFold's engine already compares periods, breaks a report down two ways at once, walks a relationship without a bridging column, and filters groups rather than records. No single screen of controls can offer all four at once. One sentence can: Orders where Status is Won and Amount > 10000 and {Company.Region} is "North West" during Closed in this quarter vs previous group by {Company.Region} across Stage show sum of Amount as Revenue having Revenue > 50000 sort by Revenue desc limit 20 One grammar, so you learn it once — but not one surface yet. A view carries the table, the where and the sort by, and a view is where the braces open today; the period, the second axis, the measures, the having and the limit are the report half of the same sentence. The grammar reads all of it and the panel prints all of it. Write a clause a view cannot carry and it comes back named, one line per clause — which is the third promise below, and worth checking rather than believing.
