Being a UNIX (Linux) partisan, and somewhat tacky towards Windows users,
why not go the normal Windows route of having a "pop up" dialog box (or at

possible loss of data. Something along the lines of "You are exiting
sqlite3, but there is data in one or more memory resident tables which will
be lost. Proceed (Y or N)?"
