In the snapshot package of firebird, there's a command (e.g.
/opt/firebird/bin/isql) you can do an sql script to be run by isql
command or you can directly use the isql command.

:to use the isql as an interactive isql cl:

        $/opt/firebird/bin/isql yourserver://somelocation/ofyourdb/yourdb.gdb \
-username <user> -password <secret>

:to execute sql script:

        $/opt/firebird/bin/isql -i yourscript.sql \
yourserver://somelocation/ofyourdb/yourdb.gdb -username <user> -password
<secret>
