Usage: mysql [OPTIONS] [database]

  -?, --help            Display this help and exit.
  -A, --no-auto-rehash  No automatic rehashing. One has to use 'rehash' to
                        get table and field completion. This gives a quicker
                        start of mysql and disables rehashing on reconnect.
  -B, --batch           Print results with a tab as separator, each row on
                        a new line. Doesn't use history file.
  --character-sets-dir=...
                        Directory where character sets are located.
  -C, --compress        Use compression in server/client protocol.
  -D, --database=..     Database to use.
  --default-character-set=...
                        Set the default character set.
  -e, --execute=...     Execute command and quit. (Output like with --batch)
  -E, --vertical        Print the output of a query (rows) vertically.

  -g, --no-named-commands
                        Named commands are disabled. Use \* form only, or
                        use named commands only in the beginning of a line
                        ending with a semicolon (;) Since version 10.9 the
                        client now starts with this option ENABLED by
                        default! Disable with '-G'. Long format commands
                        still work from the first line.
  -G, --enable-named-commands
                        Named commands are enabled. Opposite to -g.

  -N, --skip-column-names
                        Don't write column names in results.
  -O, --set-variable var=option
                        Give a variable an value. --help lists variables.
  -o, --one-database    Only update the default database. This is useful
                        for skipping updates to other database in the update
                        log.
  -p[password], --password[=...]
                        Password to use when connecting to server
                        If password is not given it's asked from the tty.
  -W, --pipe            Use named pipes to connect to server

  -P, --port=...        Port number to use for connection.

                        slow down the server if the output is suspended.

                        (\h) also. Does not work in batch mode.
  -u, --user=#          User for login if not current user.
  -U, --safe-updates[=#], --i-am-a-dummy[=#]
                        Only allow UPDATE and DELETE that uses keys.
  -v, --verbose         Write more. (-v -v -v gives the table output format)
  -V, --version         Output version information and exit.
  -w, --wait            Wait and retry if connection is down.
