This PR adds a naive command for users to choose default SQL dialect to be assigned to
source.sql
.The
sql_set_default_syntax
basically works for any syntax, but is prefixedsql_
as it is located in and dedicated to SQL syntax package.Alternatively a general purpose
set_default_syntax
could be implemented by ST core or Default package.Ideally, dialect syntaxes could be identified by attributes in
Syntax()
class, but until this becomes true, rely on a static list of files specified viadialect_file
argument to choose from.FWIW, Right now SQL seems to be the only use case for what is called a "dialect".
