.read does nothing

[dflaxx]

.read <filename.sql> does not seem to work properly. When executing a query from an sql file using .read on an existing database, there is no output. Instead, only the execution time is printed. When doing the same thing in interactive SQLite, the query is executed and there is output.

Could you please clarify if this is a bug, a missing feature or an error on my side?

Thanks and best regards!

@dflaxx thanks for reporting this issue. I have reproduced this on my side as well. It's a bug in litecli, the official sqlite3 doesn't have this issue.
