Accept as input a sexp - representing a query and output a query in TicketSQL format. For - example: [(:and (:owner "Ben Bitdiddle") (:status "open"))] => - ["Owner='Ben Bitdiddle' and Status='open'"]. - -* Module "TicketSQL runner": Run a TicketSQL query against the server - and return the result.
