The help shows that a list of TABLE is taken in the same syntax as SQLite's shell uses. Also note that the help is formatted for documenting interactive usage rather than API usage. > That works, thanks! But why is it *that* slow? Because it is written in Python and SQLite's is in C. I've made no effort to optimise the Python - please send me a sample database and I'll see what can be done. Additionally the Python supports more functionality which does have an effect on speed. For example you can choose what encoding is used.
