Re: [Orgmode] [BUG] ob-sqlite.el, -init doesn't work with some options

[Eric Schulte]

Hi Łukasz,

Thanks for mentioning this issue and for posting a workaround.

Would you suggest a different method of passing the body of a sqlite
code block to the sqlite command?  The only other options which
immediately occurs to me would involve =cat='ing the body of the code
block through a pipe to the sqlite command (which would probably only
work on unix systems).

Thanks -- Eric
