I managed to do it using
mysql load data infile '/home/manuel/databases/import.txt'
- into table countries
- fields terminated by ';';
Query OK, 240 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Records: 240 Deleted: 0 Skipped: 0 Warnings: 18
(I will check the warnings...)
I guess my system do not have mysqlimport,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] manuel]$ man mysqlimport
No manual entry for mysqlimport
Thanks a lot!

There's a tool called mysqlimport. I recommend using that. Or, if you
have to extract data from a larger set, you could write a program. But,
mysqlimport is the easiest way. If you're on a UNIX machine, run 'man
mysqlimport' for more information.
Good luck,
Brian
