Re: sqlplus vs mysql command line tool

[Indrek Siitan]

Scott,

the MySQL command line tool "mysql" unfortunately is unable to do this on its own at the moment. I'm no shell guru to tell you the exact syntax, but a first thing that pops into my mind would be to run the .sql file through AWK and have that to replace &1/%2, $1/$2 or whatever with the command line parameters, and then feed it to the MySQL client.
