I have begun sqlite using quite recently and have been impressed. It's quite functional, small, and fully contained, just as advertised.
My motivation for using sqlite is to pull information out of a small database into a bash script, like so: res=$(echo $sql_cmd | sqlite example.db) And it works nicely -- except if there is a .sqliterc in the home folder. Then the message about loading resources gets put into `res`. Since this in a script, I do not want to load a .sqliterc file. There does not seem to be a direct option for this. I did find a work-around: res=$(echo $sql_cmd | sqlite -init "" example.db) While that works, passing an empty string as an argument looks very strange to me. Also, this makes a strong assumption about the behavior of the shell. Are there other folks on the list using sqlite for a similar purpose? Is there a better approach to handle what I am trying to do? Thanks, Andrew
