I'm not sure about PRAGMA, but you can do introspection in sqlite by
examining the table 'sqlite_master'.

If you think time.ctime is Unix specific, it is not.

Hi.
The explanation on that page may be a bit confusing, so I will add to it.
If you think of L * n as something similiar to doing a shallow copy of
the list L n times, then it makes some sense:
>>> a = []
>>> L = [[]]
>>> for i in xrange(5):
... a.append(L[:][0])

Thanks. That's how I get the table names, actually. But it doesn't give
the column names.
It does give the SQL used to create the table, so I c
