mysql command line client

Hello, I'm a php/mysql beginner...
Is there any way of making the mysql command line client full-screen?
Sometimes it's easier to use the client than go thru php, but
since it's only about 80 characters wide that limits its usefulness.

Thanks,
Gerard [http://homepage.eircom.net/~gerfmcc]

Yep, I know exactly what it means. And it fits you perfectly.
You clearly don't. Apparently you think it applies to anyone who
disagrees with you and stands up to you after you've been an ass.

Perhaps you should take a break from posting until you stop
menstruating .
ROFLMAO! Check back through this thread. You started the name
calling.
And you kept trying to change the subject because you had no
arguments.

And you continue. Just another troll.

As I said, you should look up what troll means. Let me look back in the
thread and refresh your memory:

"I have no problem that people ask MySQL questions in this group... a
lot of us run LAMP servers after all."

To which you felt it necessary to act like you own the group and be an
ass.

If you can't be civil then don't expect other to be.

Get it straight in your head, troll. This is a PHP newsgroup. If you
don't believe it, read the charter for the newsgroup. You can find it
at http://www.dbforums.com/archive/index.php/t-400780.html.
You are truly deluded.

Are you suggesting that it would be inappropriate for someone to ask a PHP
related MySQL question in this group?

Do you know what a LAMP server is?

Are you aware that in my post I also pointed out that the question was not
only off topic for this group but for a MySQL group as well?

This argument has nothing to do with what's on or off topic here but the
fact that you're a big whiny dork that thought he should act like the
emperor of the group by parroting information I had already included in my
post back to me as if you were an authority.

If all you can do is call people a troll when they clearly aren't being
one and are incapable of justifying your own statements then your opinion
is pretty much irrelevant.

Then don't speak as if you are.
And there is nothing in the charter discussing MySQL. It is all about
PHP.
So if someone is trying to figure out why their PHP code that connects to
a MySQL server isn't working they should be refused help?

What if their PHP code is trying to write a file to the file system?
Should they be in a group for the filesystem?

So, help me understand, as far as you're concerned the only questions on
topic here are concerning PHP syntax in a vacuum? Not application?
That's what this discussion is about - not the fact that you're a troll.
Could you explain how that last statement even makes sense?

It's just the fact. This discussion is about whether MySQL questions
are appropriate to this newsgroup. They aren't, according to the
Charter. And just because YOU think it's ok to post MySQL questions in
here doesn't mean it is.

Thats' what the discussion is about. You've already proven yourself to
be a troll. That's not necessary to discuss.

constructive in any way has been long gone..

This argument has nothing to do with what's on or off topic here but
the fact that you're a big whiny dork that thought he should act like
the emperor of the group by parroting information I had already
included in my post back to me as if you were an authority.

If all you can do is call people a troll when they clearly aren't being
one and are incapable of justifying your own statements then your
opinion is pretty much irrelevant.
Read the charter. This group is for PHP questions. I'm not the
authority - the charter for this newsgroup is.
Then don't speak as if you are.
I'm just repeating what the charter said.


Your response to my suggesting LAMP questions were fine with me:
"Maybe YOU don't. But most of us would rather see PHP questions here.
If you want MySQL questions, try one of the MySQL newsgroups. That's
what they're there for."
Exactly. MySQL questions go in a MySQL newsgroup. Apache questions go
in an Apache newsgroup. PHP questions go here.
>>>And there is nothing in the charter discussing MySQL. It is all about
PHP.
So if someone is trying to figure out why their PHP code that connects to
a MySQL server isn't working they should be refused help?

What if their PHP code is trying to write a file to the file system?
Should they be in a group for the filesystem?

So, help me understand, as far as you're concerned the only questions on
topic here are concerning PHP syntax in a vacuum? Not application?
That is not what I said. And not what the charter says. Learn to read.
It's simple English.

Yea... that's what I thought. Redefine and backpedal.
No back peddling. You just can't read. It's the same thing I've been
saying all along.
>>>That's what this discussion is about - not the fact that you're a troll.
Could you explain how that last statement even makes sense?
It's just the fact. This discussion is about whether MySQL questions
are appropriate to this newsgroup. They aren't, according to the
Charter. And just because YOU think it's ok to post MySQL questions in
here doesn't mean it is.

Thats' what the discussion is about. You've already proven yourself to
be a troll. That's not necessary to discuss.

Just can't admit that you're wrong can you?
No, because I'm not. I'm following the charter for this newsgroup. But
you're just a troll.

Indeed, I'm with you :).

Yea, I guess I should just stop responding to the troll. He tries to
twist everything I say then gets pissed when I don't let him get away
with it.

Typical troll behavior.

Hi I just upgraded from MySQL 4.0.something to 4.1.1 (alpha). When I try to connect to MySQL in a PHP script, I get the following error: "mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in file.php on line 130"

Hi there I've noticed some very weird things happening with my current MySQL setup on my XP Laptop, a development machine. For a while, I have been trying to get the MySQL cache to work. Despite entering the required lines to "my.ini" (the new my.cnf) through notepad AND MySQL Administrator, the cache does not work. So, today I took a peek at the 'Health' tab in MySQL Administrator.
