Sqlite3 run without any arguments
But did I discover a bug too?
Why doesn't .dump allow input.t1 to be shown?

SQLite version 3.7.14.1 2012-10-04 19:37:12
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> attach database "blah.db" as input;
sqlite> create table input.t1(n);
sqlite> insert into input.t1 values(1);
sqlite> insert into input.t1 values(2);
sqlite> create table copy as select * from input.t1;
sqlite> .dump
PRAGMA foreign_keys=OFF;
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
CREATE TABLE copy(n);
INSERT INTO "copy" VALUES(1);
INSERT INTO "copy" VALUES(2);
COMMIT;
sqlite> .dump input.t1
PRAGMA foreign_keys=OFF;
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
COMMIT;
sqlite> select * from t1;

Igor, Michael
Thank you very much for your advice re how to use Update with compound
queries

I'm currently trying to copy the rows of stmnts with a blank itm field to a
temporary table.
I don't think virtual tables are implemented in my programming language's
interface and so wanted to
copy the stmnts table from the real database where itm='' to a table in a
:memory: database.
I appreciate that the statement is normally
insert into tbl values (fld1 integer, fld2 text);
but how do I fill a table in a :memory: db with the contents of another in
a real database?
I'll keep looking into it.
