But the question is who the target audience for SQLite is? Is it
software developers or application users?  If programmers can customize
SQLite by changing source code, then they are probably smart enough to
change property files.
I am not complaining about the lack of a config file, just wondering why
not

Not only is it a feature, it is a blessing.  One of the most endearing 
features of Sqlite is that one file encapsulates everything.  The 
simplicity is no accident but rather the reward of plenty of design 
discipline.

I can attest from experience to the improvement in software reliability 
achieved by removing .ini files and similar configuration add-ons.  For 
example support call rates drop enormously.

SQLite has no configuration file.  This is by design.  SQLite is  
intended to be a "zero-configuration" database.  See 
http://www.sqlite.org/zeroconf.html 
  .  The lack of a configuration file is a feature, not a bug.

Nothing specific.
Reading messages here gives me the impression that SQLite behavior can
be modified only by changing the source code.  Just wanted to confirm.

It would probably be better if you were a little more specific. What 
part of its behavior do you want to change?

There is something like that for the command line
tool. You can put a .sqliterc file in your homedir
(for windows: %USERPROFILE%).

.sqliterc can contain any valid command for the
command line tool, I usually put
.bail on
in it.

[sqlite] property/config file for SQLite

Is there a way to configure SQLite using a property/config file?
Is changing the source code the only way to affect how it behaves?
