Documentation on WAL is still very incomplete.  But what documentation does
exist just happens to address this very question.  See
http://www.sqlite.org/draft/wal.html for the preliminaries.  My day-plan was
to expand that document later this morning (after I get through email.)

WAL requires an enhanced VFS which is currently only available on unix.
Shane is working on the necessary VFS enhancements for windows and should
have them going soon.  We do not expect WAL to be production-ready for many
months.  But it is adequate for development and testing work now.
