+The sqldiff binary is a command-line utility program that displays
+the differences between SQLite databases.
+
+Example usage:
+sqldiff [options] database1.sqlite database2.sqlite
+
+The usual output is an SQL script that will transform database1.sqlite
+(the "source" database) into database2.sqlite (the "destination" database).
+
+
+sqldiff is part of SQLite, it comes inside the tools directory of
+the SQLite sources. It isn't included in the stock slackware SQLite package.
+Hence this SlackBuild follows the Slackware SQLite version and compilation options.
+This is why the source used are linked from Slackware mirrors, to ensure
+maximum compatibility with stock Slackware.
