For the effort to make a shareware SQL database. At TcX, the predecessor

of MySQL AB, we started with @code{mSQL}, but found that it couldn't

satisfy our purposes so instead we wrote a SQL interface to our

application builder Unireg.  @code{mysqladmin} and @code{mysql} ar

application builder Unireg.  @code{mysqladmin} and @code{mysql} client are

programs that were largely influenced by their @code{mSQL} counterparts.

We have put a lot of effort into making the MySQL syntax a superset of

@code{mSQL}. Many of the API's ideas are borrowed from @code{mSQL} to

make it easy to port free @code{mSQL} programs to MySQL.
