Console aliases

2005-03-04 Thread jacob martinson
Is it possible to setup aliases in the mysql console to cut down on
typing, i.e. instead of having to type out show tables I can just
type \dt as in postgresql?

Thanks,
Jacob

i'll usually pipe mysqldump into gzip if it's a large database, or gpg
if there's sensitive data in it.

Does anyone know if there are any 3rd party shells that can connect to
a mysql server that support aliases, or have any features that can
make working from the console faster?

Thanks!
