[feature request] dump multiple tables at once

(1) By Mark Lawrence (mark) on 2020-03-25 12:06:15 [link] [source]

It is not clear to me what the '...' for the .dump command syntax refers to:

.dump ?TABLE? ...

For some CLIs that could mean further ?TABLE? arguments, but unfortunately this is not supported by SQLite. It would be nice if

  1. The documentation was more explicit about the '...'
  2. The .dump command supported dumping multiple tables at once

Enhancement implemented here: https://www.sqlite.org/src/info/45fba3d7055f90f6

Please test and report back any problems you find.

Thanks for the quick implementation. Works for me as expected.
