sqlite is technically just one C source file, so that's definitely a script.

The compiled binary being another script.
Just in a different language.

Being one source file is the definition of a script?

[–] mmddmm@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago

The definition of a script is something the computer executes (if it's a computer script, of course). Everything else people shove into it is extraneous.

Wait, so the bash script that I broke down into multiple files because I was unable to create and use functions properly, could not be considered a script?
