Subject: Clear Screen in MySQL?


Hello there,

Is there a way to clear the screen in MySQL's command line prompt (mysql>)?

I am using OS X Tiger with MySQL 5....


I don't have a Mac and I'm not running MySQL 5 but when I was at the MySQL prompt in Linux running MySQL Version 4.0.15 just now, the following worked fine:

\! clear

Since 'clear' is a Linux operating system command and Linux and Mac OS X are both forms of Unix, this command might very well work fine for you too.

Please note that the '\! ' in front of the clear command is used to tell MySQL to pass the command back to the OS to handle.
