Terminal Command Mac Alter table SQLite3

Question

What is the terminal command, or where is a good resource to get them, to alter a table. And, do I need to re run the $rake db:migrate after I do this? I am running RoR on Snow Leopard. Last question, can I make an already created column non-null.

UPDATE: figured out how to alter, just need to know if I need to rake db:migrate after alter.
