Usage:
$0 database_name table_name new_column_name new_column_type
[new_column_caption]
- {database_name}.old backup file is created before proceeding
- database_name and table_name must exist
- new_column_name must not exist and should be valid idetifier
- new_column_type must be one of:
Byte, ShortInteger, Integer, BigInteger, Boolean, Date, DateTime, Time,
Float, Double, Text, LongText, BLOB (for images)
- new_column_caption can be any text; enclose it in \" \" if you want to use
spaces there
Example: to append a column 'photo' of type BLOB to the table 'cars', type
$0 db.kexi cars photo BLOB Photo"
