+<p>Here is what you do to start experimenting with SQLite without having
+to do a lot of tedious reading and configuration:</p>
+
+<h2>Download The Code</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>Get a copy of the prebuilt binaries for your machine, or get a copy
+of the sources and compile them yourself. Visit
+the <a href="download.html">download</a> page for more information.</p></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Create A New Database</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>At a shell or DOS prompt, enter: "<b>sqlite3 test.db</b>". This will
+create a new database named "test.db". (You can use a different name if
+you like.)</p></li>
+<li><p>Enter SQL commands at the prompt to create and populate the
+new database.</p></li>
+<li><p>Additional documentation is available <a href="cli.html">here</a>.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Write Programs That Use SQLite</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>Below is a simple
+<a href="http://www.tcl-lang.org">TCL program</a> that demonstrates how to use
+the TCL interface to SQLite. The program executes the SQL statements
+given as the second argument on the database defined by the first
+argument. The commands to watch for are the <b>sqlite3</b> command
+on line 7 which opens an SQLite database and creates
+a new object named "<b>db</b>" to access that database, the
+use of the <a href="tclsqlite.html#eval">eval method</a> on the <b>db</b> object on line 8 to run
+SQL commands against the database, and the closing of the database connection
+on the last line of the script.</p>
+
+<blockquote><pre>
+01 #!/usr/bin/tclsh
+02 if {$argc!=2} {
+03 puts stderr "Usage: %s DATABASE SQL-STATEMENT"
+04 exit 1
+05 }
+06 package require sqlite3
+07 <b>sqlite3</b> db &#91;lindex $argv 0]
+08 <b>db</b> eval &#91;lindex $argv 1] x {
+09 foreach v $x(*) {
+10 puts "$v = $x($v)"
+11 }
+12 puts ""
+13 }
+14 <b>db</b> close
+</pre></blockquote>
+</li>
+
+<li><p>Below is a simple C program that demonstrates how to use
+the <a href="c3ref/intro.html">C/C++ interface</a> to SQLite. The name of a database is given by
+the first argument and the second argument is one or more SQL statements
+to execute against the database. The function calls to pay attention
+to here are the call to <a href="c3ref/open.html">sqlite3_open()</a> on line 22 which opens
+the database, <a href="c3ref/exec.html">sqlite3_exec()</a> on line 28 that executes SQL
+commands against the database, and <a href="c3ref/close.html">sqlite3_close()</a> on line 33
+that closes the database connection.</p>
+
+<p>See also the <a href="cintro.html">Introduction To The SQLite C/C++ Interface</a> for
+an introductory overview and roadmap to the dozens of SQLite interface
+functions.</p>
