    <title>Command Explanations</title>

    <para><parameter>CFLAGS="-g -O2 -DSQLITE_SECURE_DELETE -DSQLITE_ENABLE_UNLOCK_NOTIFY=1"
    </parameter>: Applications such as <application>firefox</application> require
    secure delete and enable unlock notify to be turned on.  The only way to do
    this is to include them in the CFLAGS.  By default, these are set to
    <literal>"-g -O2"</literal> so we specify that to preserve those settings.
    You may, of course, wish to omit the <literal>'-g'</literal> if you do not
    wish to create debugging information.  For further information on what can
    be specified see <ulink url="http://www.sqlite.org/compile.html"/>.</para>

    <para><parameter>--enable-threadsafe</parameter>: Though the documentation
    and running <command>./configure --help</command> indicate that this is the
    default, it is not. You must add this parameter if you want a threadsafe
    library.</para>

    <para><parameter>--enable-readline</parameter>: This parameter enables
    command line editing capability to the <command>sqlite3</command>
    program.</para>

    <para><parameter>--enable-dynamic-extensions</parameter>: This creates
    library modules that are dynamically linked as needed instead of statically
    linking them into the main <application>SQLite</application> library.</para>
