Sqlite3 will get into a tangle with certain sequences where it does not accept a semicolon as a terminator or obey a CTL c.

This is probably a stupid question but has frustrated me a couple of times.


When using the command line interface sqlite3, a couple of times I have forgotten to use the "." before a command. After that I get a "...>" prompt that I can't seem to escape from and accepts no commands? My only choice is to shut down that terminal and start a new one..


There must be an easy way to get back to the command mode? And what is the "...>" mode?

Try typing the semi-colon to terminate the sql statement.
You should get a syntax error report and no further action.
The command prompt should appear on the next line.
