Zugg Software :: View topic - [3.09] Feature Request: SQLite Vacuum Command

In the prior Mapper DB you had the option to compact the database. Can you add the equivalent "vacuum" command for SQLite?

Yes, this is on the to-do list. This was a feature of zMapper not zMUD/CMUD so you probably won't see it until I do cMapper. If it's a critical need, you can probably find an SQLite utility program that can do this for you. It's not database structure dependent, so any SQLite tool would work with the mapper files.

I'm pretty sure it was a part of either zMud or CMud (I thought both), because those are the only two programs I've used. It was a drop down menu option on the left-most mapper menu before you converted from Microsoft's DB to SQLite. That's when I remember it disappearing.

I know you can use an external utility, and I do, however it is much more convenient the way you had a menu option for it previously. I realize you have bigger fish to fry at the moment, but I just wanted to put the suggestion out since I was missing the removed feature.
