Accessing MySQL shell via Terminal
Certain things are extremely well documented on the Web; certain other things, however, seem to appear only deep in the comments of obscure blog entries.
The problem I encountered a few minutes ago fell squarely in the latter
category. I simply wanted to know how to access the MySQL shell from the OS X
Terminal. I expected my Google search for MySQL console Terminal "OS X" to
return several useful results, but this was not the case.
I managed to find the solution in a thread with subject error 1044 and 1045:
mysql -u root -p mysql

Search the right term: "Terminal" is an application that provides a bash command line interface. The first result of "MySQL command Line" give you just this :p
