SQLite Locking

[Peter Haworth]

Yep, these dot commands only mean anything to the sqlite3 command line  
program, not SQlite itslef.  I thought of executing a script to issue  
the .time but honestly, the LC loop is 6 lines of code so it's not a  
big deal to keep it in LC.

STill got to get around to doing my tests over a network though.
