+.SH NAME
+ksqlite2 \- A command line interface for SQLite
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B ksqlite2
+.RI [ options ] " filename " [ SQL ]
+.SS SUMMARY
+.PP
+ksqlite2 is a terminal-based front-end to the SQLite library. It enables
+you to type in queries interactively, issue them to SQLite and see the
+results. Alternatively, you can specify SQL code on the command-line. In
+addition it provides a number of meta-commands.
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page documents briefly the
+.B ksqlite2
+command.
+This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
+because the original program does not have a manual page.
+.SS GETTING STARTED
+.PP
+To start the ksqlite2 program, just type "ksqlite2" followed by the name
+the file that holds the SQLite database. If the file does not exist, a
+new one is created automatically. The ksqlite2 program will then prompt
+you to enter SQL. Type in SQL statements (terminated by a semicolon),
+press "Enter" and the SQL will be executed.
+
+For example, to create a new SQLite database named "ex1" with a single
+table named "tbl1", you might do this:
+.sp
+.nf
+$ ksqlite2 ex1
+SQLite version 2.8.15 (bundled with Kexi)
+Enter ".help" for instructions
+sqlite> create table tbl1(one varchar(10), two smallint);
+sqlite> insert into tbl1 values('hello!',10);
+sqlite> insert into tbl1 values('goodbye', 20);
+sqlite> select * from tbl1;
+hello!|10
+goodbye|20
+sqlite>
+.sp
+.fi
+
+.SS SQLITE META-COMMANDS
+.PP
+Most of the time, ksqlite2 just reads lines of input and passes them on
+to the SQLite library for execution. But if an input line begins with
+a dot ("."), then that line is intercepted and interpreted by the
+ksqlite2 program itself. These "dot commands" are typically used to
+change the output format of queries, or to execute certain prepackaged
+query statements.
+
+For a listing of the available dot commands, you can enter ".help" at
+any time. For example:
+.sp
+.nf
+.cc |
+sqlite> .help
+.dump ?TABLE? ... Dump the database in an text format
+.echo ON|OFF Turn command echo on or off
+.exit Exit this program
+.explain ON|OFF Turn output mode suitable for EXPLAIN on or off.
+ "off" will revert to the output mode that was
+ previously in effect
+.header(s) ON|OFF Turn display of headers on or off
+.help Show this message
+.indices TABLE Show names of all indices on TABLE
+.mode MODE Set mode to one of "line(s)", "column(s)",
+ "insert", "list", or "html"
+.mode insert TABLE Generate SQL insert statements for TABLE
+.nullvalue STRING Print STRING instead of nothing for NULL data
+.output FILENAME Send output to FILENAME
+.output stdout Send output to the screen
+.prompt MAIN CONTINUE Replace the standard prompts
+ "ksqlite2 > " and " ...> "
+ with the strings MAIN and CONTINUE
+ CONTINUE is optional.
+.quit Exit this program
+.read FILENAME Execute SQL in FILENAME
+.reindex ?TABLE? Rebuild indices
+.schema ?TABLE? Show the CREATE statements
+.separator STRING Change separator string for "list" mode
+.show Show the current values for the following:
+ .echo
+ .explain
+ .mode
+ .nullvalue
+ .output
+ .separator
+ .width
+.tables ?PATTERN? List names of tables matching a pattern
+.timeout MS Try opening locked tables for MS milliseconds
+.width NUM NUM ... Set column widths for "column" mode
+sqlite>
+|cc .
+.sp
+.fi
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+The program has the following options:
+.TP
+.BI \-init\ file
+Read in and process 'file', which contains "dot commands".
+You can use this file to initialize display settings.
+.TP
+.B \-html
+Set output mode to HTML.
+.TP
+.B \-list
+Set output mode to 'list'.
+.TP
+.B \-line
+Set output mode to 'line'.
+.TP
+.B \-column
+Set output mode to 'column'.
+.TP
+.BI \-separator\ separator
+Specify which output field separator for 'list' mode to use.
+Default is '|'.
+.TP
+.BI \-nullvalue\ string
+When a null is encountered, print 'string'. Default is no string.
+.TP
+.B \-[no]header
+Turn headers on or off. Default is off.
+.TP
+.B \-echo
+Print commands before execution.
+
+
+.SH OUTPUT MODE
+The SQLite program has different output modes, which define the way
+the output (from queries) is formatted.
+
+In 'list' mode, which is the default, one record per line is output,
+each field separated by the separator specified with the
+\fB-separator\fP option or \fB.separator\fP command.
+
+In 'line' mode, each column is output on its own line, records are
+separated by blank lines.
+
+In HTML mode, an XHTML table is generated.
+
+In 'column' mode, one record per line is output, aligned neatly in colums.
+
+.SH INIT FILE
+ksqlite2 can be initialized using resource files. These can be combined with
+command line arguments to set up ksqlite2 exactly the way you want it.
+Initialization proceeds as follows:
+
+o The defaults of
+
+.sp
+.nf
+.cc |
+mode = LIST
+separator = "|"
+main prompt = "sqlite> "
+continue prompt = " ...> "
+|cc .
+.sp
+.fi
+
+are established.
+
+o If a file .sqliterc can be found in the user's home directory, it is
+read and processed. It should only contain "dot commands". If the
+file is not found or cannot be read, processing continues without
+notification.
+
+o If a file is specified on the command line with the -init option, it
+is processed in the same manner as .sqliterc
+
+o All other command line options are processed
+
+o The database is opened and you are now ready to begin.
