I'm running MySQL on OS X and have just tried writing to an OUTFILE, 
but I can't get to it.

I guessed it was in the directory /usr/local/var  but I couldn't 'cd' 
to that directory (permission denied), even using the command:

     sudo cd /usr/local/var

and got some sort of error (other than permission denied) but I 
finally tried 'sudo ls -al /usr/local/var/databasename/' and found 
the file.  Difficulty now is how do I get at it?

In a semi-related question, how can I do a "Find" for the Unix files. 
I tried "locate", but with no luck.

Thanks for any assistance,
Nelson
