Description

bug connectivity

Will go-sqlcmd support LocalDB connections on Windows? (Basically the equivalent to sqlcmd -S (localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB -E.)

On Windows I get the following error with the latest go-sqlcmd 1.4.0: "no named pipe instance matching 'MSSQLLOCALDB' returned from host '(localdb)'".
