doc {Appropriate Uses For SQLite} {whentouse.html} {
  This document describes situations where SQLite is an approriate
  database engine to use versus situations where a client/server
  database engine might be a better choice.
}

doc {Distinctive Features} {different.html} {
  This document enumerates and describes some of the features of
  SQLite that make it different from other SQL database engines.
}

doc {SQLite In 5 Minutes Or Less} {quickstart.html} {
  A very quick introduction to programming with SQLite.
}

doc {SQL Syntax} {lang.html} {
  This document describes the SQL language that is understood by
  SQLite.  
}
doc {Version 3 C/C++ API<br>Reference} {capi3ref.html} {
  This document describes each API function separately.
}
doc {Sharing Cache Mode} {sharedcache.html} {
  Version 3.3.0 and later supports the ability for two or more
  database connections to share the same page and schema cache.
  This feature is useful for certain specialized applications.
}
doc {Tcl API} {tclsqlite.html} {
  A description of the TCL interface bindings for SQLite.
}

doc {Pragma commands} {pragma.html} {

  A summary of of the changes between SQLite version 2.8 and SQLite version 3.0.
}
doc {Version 3 C/C++ API} {capi3.html} {
  A description of the C/C++ interface bindings for SQLite version 3.0.0
  and following.
}
doc {Version 3 DataTypes } {datatype3.html} {
  SQLite version 3 introduces the concept of manifest typing, where the
  type of a value is associated with the value itself, not the column that
  it is stored in.
  This page describes data typing for SQLite version 3 in further detail.
}

doc {Locking And Concurrency<br>In SQLite Version 3} {lockingv3.html} {
  A description of how the new locking code in version 3 increases
  concurrancy and decreases the problem of writer starvation.
}

  A quick overview of the various query optimizations that are
  attempted by the SQLite code generator.
}

  executing SQL statements.  This page describes the principles of operation
  for the VDBE in SQLite version 2.7.  This is essential reading for anyone
  who want to modify the SQLite sources.
}

doc {VDBE Opcodes} {opcode.html} {
  This document is an automatically generated description of the various
  opcodes that the VDBE understands.  Programmers can use this document as
