On Unix platforms that tool does support the readline library and readline has the infrastructure for completion but the SQLite shell code does not use it. If I may plug my Python SQLite wrapper, it includes a shell compatible with SQLite's one: http://apidoc.apsw.googlecode.com/hg/shell.html Enhancements include completion support (quite tricky to do!), colour output, easy extensibility, nicer dumps etc. If you have APSW installed then you can do this to run it: python -c 'import apsw;apsw.main()' dbfilename Roger -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1WzvMACgkQmOOfHg372QTIoACfT4ikWqmPJoXL8P2WkdHGAl35 m8MAnjaMZodU9Zxi+PUiW0aqZmw/+vuY =+Bo8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
