My mistake. The "shell" is, in fact, the command-line interface. DOS, Command Prompt, Terminal, etc, on different operating systems. The instructions below will tell you, Stefan, how to access mysql. Sorry if there was any confusion. > The "shell" is the interactive terminal program, mysql. For Windows, if > MySQL was installed in C:\mysql, start the Command Prompt from > Accessories, change to C:\mysql, and type "mysql". > > In Unix, including Linux, BreeBSD and Mac OS X, mysql ought to be in your > path, which means you should just be able to start a terminal application > and type "mysql" to begin. ----- James Cradock, [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
