>From the SQLite shell

.read myfile

Or, from the OS command shell

sqlite3 foo.db ".read myfile"

.help in the SQLite shell will give you the available commands

Note.  For me, it's a habit to end lines in the SQLite shell with a semicolon.  
That breaks the .read and .import commands because the SQLite shell includes 
the trailing semicolon as part of the file or table identifier.

Subject: Re: [sqlite] running a script?

I'm asking about an actual file, though, not just a single query. I've
tried something like what you suggest with the file path, but it
doesn't work.
