    1. COORCOS (and its distant cousin Orca, http://orca-robotics.sourceforge.net/) aren't simulators either. To the best of my knowledge ORCOS is a framework focused on real-time control, typically on a single computer, whereas Orca puts an emphasis on distributed components (with the obligatory own set of common robotics interfaces, of course). YARP (http://eris.liralab.it/yarp/) is another framework similar in spirit to Orca, but focused more on vision. It's also not a robotics simulator, though.

    3. COI wouldn't call myself a guru but I work in the robotics field, and you pick up a lot of stuff along the way... I'm also the developer behind the peekabot tool you linked.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
