  23 ;; Converts an orgtbl to a sequence of SQL insertion commands.
  24 ;; Table cells are quoted and escaped very conservatively.

  29   "Convert the orgtbl-mode TABLE to SQL insert statements.
  30 TABLE is a list, each entry either the symbol `hline' for a horizontal
  31 separator line, or a list of fields for that line.
  32 PARAMS is a property list of parameters that can influence the conversion.
  33
  34 Names and strings are modified slightly by default.  Single-ticks
  35 are doubled as per SQL's standard mechanism.  Backslashes and
  36 dollar signs are deleted.  And tildes are changed to spaces.
  37 These modifications were chosed for use with TeX.  See
  38 ORGTBL-SQL-STRIP-AND-QUOTE.
  39
  40 Supports all parameters from ORGTBL-TO-GENERIC.  New to this function
  41 are:
  42
  43 :sqlname   The name of the database table; defaults to the name of the
  44            target region.
  45
  46 :nowebname If not nil, used as a wrapping noweb fragment name.
  47
  48 The most important parameters of ORGTBL-TO-GENERIC for SQL are:
  49
  50 :splice    When set to t, return only insert statements, don't wrap
  51            them in a transaction.  Default is nil.
  52
  53 :tstart, :tend
  54            The strings used to begin and commit the transaction.
  55
  56 :hfmt      A function that gathers the quoted header names into a
  57            dynamically scoped variable HDRLIST.  Probably should
  58            not be changed by the user.
  59
  60 The general parameters :skip and :skipcols have already been applied when
  61 this function is called."
