title: Create empty sqlite db from command line
body: <p>Is it possible to create an empty <code>sqlite3</code> database from the command line (e.g. <code>sqlite3 &lt;someoption&gt; dbname</code>) which would create a database file for me empty of any tables so that I can access it from a different SQL editor?</p>
  
  <p>Currently, when I do <code>sqlite3 dbname</code>, I get a sqlite prompt from which I can do <code>CREATE TABLE ...</code> but if I don't, when I exit, no file is created.  So I am looking for a single command which would create an empty database for me without a need to create at least one table within that step.</p>
