The default GUI shell mySQL application ( DOS mysql.exe)sucks! Does anyone know of any graphical frontend ( windows or unix anything )? I sort of know some commands but the interface is eww! ( basic stuff like create database xyz; )...
Hmm.. looks like I cant get it working either to create a database in windows. Will try the linooox version soon.. its newer!
I like phpMyAdmin. If you are familiar with php or are at least able to install it it works really well. And it's free. http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/
