NAME
      sqlbuffer - manage shell's SQL buffer

SYNOPSIS
      sqlbuffer [OPTION]
 
DESCRIPTION
      sqlbuffer works with the local shell's SQL buffer. The -l and -s options require that a file name be specified. On -s option, if file already exists, buffer is appended to file; 
      if file does not exist, file is created and buffer is written to file.

      If OPTION is not supplied, sqlbuffer prints the SQL buffer contents to standard output.

OPTIONS
      -c
      Clear the buffer.

      -e
      Edit the buffer.
 
      -l FILE
      Load the buffer contents from file.
      -p
      Print the SQL buffer contents to standard output.

      -s FILE
      Save the buffer contents to file.
