@cindex environment variables

@cindex programs, list of

All MySQL clients that communicate with the server using the

@code{mysqlclient} library use the following environment variables:

@tindex @code{MYSQL_UNIX_PORT} environment variable

@tindex environment variable, @code{MYSQL_UNIX_PORT}

@tindex @code{MYSQL_TCP_PORT} environment variable

@tindex environment variable, @code{MYSQL_TCP_PORT}

@tindex @code{MYSQL_PWD} environment variable

@tindex environment variable, @code{MYSQL_PWD}

@tindex @code{MYSQL_DEBUG} environment variable

@tindex environment variable, @code{MYSQL_DEBUG}

@multitable @columnfractions .25 .60

@item @strong{Name} @tab @strong{Description}

@item @code{MYSQL_UNIX_PORT} @tab The default socket; used for connections to @code{localhost}

@item @code{MYSQL_TCP_PORT}  @tab The default TCP/IP port

@item @code{MYSQL_PWD} @tab The default password

@item @code{MYSQL_DEBUG} @tab Debug-trace options when debugging

@item @code{TMPDIR} @tab The directory where temporary tables/files are created

@end multitable

Use of @code{MYSQL_PWD} is insecure.

@tindex @code{MYSQL_HISTFILE} environment variable

@tindex environment variable, @code{MYSQL_HISTFILE}

@tindex @code{HOME} environment variable

@tindex environment variable, @code{HOME}

@cindex history file

@cindex command-line history

@tindex .mysql_history file

The @file{mysql} client uses the file named in the @code{MYSQL_HISTFILE}

environment variable to save the command-line history. The default value for

the history file is @file{$HOME/.mysql_history}, where @code{$HOME} is the

value of the @code{HOME} environment variable. @xref{Environment variables}.

All MySQL programs take many different options. However, every

MySQL program provides a @code{--help} option that you can use

to get a full description of the program's different options. For example, try

@code{mysql --help}.

You can override default options for all standard client programs with an

The following list briefly describes the server-side MySQL programs:

@table @code

by FTP to @file{/pub/mysql/Incoming} on @code{support.mysql.com} for the

convenience of other MySQL users.

@cindex @code{msql2mysql}

@item msql2mysql

A shell script that converts @code{mSQL} programs to MySQL. It doesn't

handle all cases, but it gives a good start when converting.

@cindex @code{mysqlaccess}

@item mysqlaccess

A script that checks the access privileges for a host, user, and database

combination.

@cindex @code{mysqladmin}

@item mysqladmin

Utility for performing administrative operations, such as creating or

dropping databases, reloading the grant tables, flushing tables to disk, and

reopening log files.  @code{mysqladmin} can also be used to retrieve version,

process, and status information from the server.

@xref{mysqladmin, , @code{mysqladmin}}.

@cindex @code{mysqlbug}

@item mysqlbug

The MySQL bug report script.  This script should always be used when

@item mysqld

The SQL daemon. This should always be running.

@cindex @code{mysqldump}

@item mysqldump

Dumps a MySQL database into a file as SQL statements or

as tab-separated text files. Enhanced freeware originally by Igor Romanenko.

@xref{mysqldump, , @code{mysqldump}}.

@cindex @code{mysqlimport}

@item mysqlimport

Imports text files into their respective tables using @code{LOAD DATA

INFILE}. @xref{mysqlimport, , @code{mysqlimport}}.

@cindex @code{mysqlshow}

@item mysqlshow

Displays information about databases, tables, columns, and indexes.

@cindex @code{mysql_install_db}

@item mysql_install_db

Creates the MySQL grant tables with default privileges. This is

usually executed only once, when first installing MySQL

on a system.

@cindex @code{replace}

@item replace

A utility program that is used by @code{msql2mysql}, but that has more

general applicability as well.  @code{replace} changes strings in place in

files or on the standard input. Uses a finite state machine to match longer

strings first. Can be used to swap strings. For example, this command

swaps @code{a} and @code{b} in the given files:

@example

shell> replace a b b a -- file1 file2 ...

@end example

@end table

You can override default options for all standard client programs with an

option file. @ref{Option files}.

@table @code

@cindex @code{myisamchk}

@item myisamchk

Utility to describe, check, optimise, and repair MySQL tables.

Because @code{myisamchk} has many functions, it is described in its own

chapter. @xref{MySQL Database Administration}.

@cindex @code{make_binary_distribution}

@item make_binary_distribution

Makes a binary release of a compiled MySQL. This could be sent

by FTP to @file{/pub/mysql/Incoming} on @code{support.mysql.com} for the

convenience of other MySQL users.

@cindex @code{msql2mysql}

@item msql2mysql

A shell script that converts @code{mSQL} programs to MySQL. It doesn't

process, and status information from the server.

@cindex @code{mysqlbug}

@item mysqlbug

The MySQL bug report script.  This script should always be used when

filing a bug report to the MySQL list.

The SQL daemon. This should always be running.

@cindex @code{mysqldump}

@item mysqldump

Dumps a MySQL database into a file as SQL statements or
