mysql tool

I've put together a nice little mysql database tool (CLI) that I wanted to submit as an article here and when I tried to upload the installer package (in .tgz format) the site gave a couple of errors and refused to accept the file. The utility is a basic script that reads a filename.sql file to determine a course of action, it is configurable for defaults, has built in help and also includes a man page. Next addition is a shebang line feature so it can be called from a script file like php is called but with: <?mysqlcmd # some mysql code ?> Another feature to add is an explore feature for existing databases which shouldn't be too difficult to implement. I realize there are many application and other web-based utilities but this tool is just as powerfull and should not be under estimated. -- Dale
