Default Column Headings at the bottom - 07-22-2003 , 01:33 PM







While watching a realtime data acquistion system's MySQL table fill, I
routinely run "mysql> SELECT * FROM TABLE". After 300+ rows scroll by [in
text mode under *nix], I've usually lost track of which column [out of
23] belongs to what datafield.

Is there an option to have the "mysql" tool repeat the column headings
provided at the beginning of select after the last row? At the moment,
I use:

mysql> select * from en; select * from en order by date desc,hour desc,minute desc limit 1;

but the column widths do not match up [due to 0s where NNNN might have
existed eariler].

TIA

No, there is no such option.
