Cleaner scripting via shell variables
Because SQL queries, by nature, can be long and complex, we will frequently need to deal with line breaks while passing in SQL queries to csvkit commands.
One way to work around this is to store the SQL queries as a shell variable, then pass in the shell variable in place of the SQL query where needed.
