SQLite 3.8.6

A command-line access program that was especially designed in order to provide an uncomplicated means of working with SQLite databases

The SQLite library includes a small command-line utility SQLite3 that will allow you to manually enter and execute SQL commands against an SQLite database. This document provides a brief introduction on how to use sqlite3.
