I've used both of these on my current project. And while useful, I still prefer the command line client. But that's me. They worked well under both Windows and Linux and somewhat approximate the experience MS SQL users get with Enterprise Manager and Query Analyzer.

I, too, prefer the command line, either within the MySQL CLI client or from bash, piping commands to the MySQL client. I've discovered two neat options to less: -S and --shift. For example, I've added this to my ~/.my.cnf :


[mysql]
pager=/usr/bin/less -XeiS --shift 10

This allows you to view really long lines by scrolling to the left and right using the arrow keys. For example:

$ ls | xargs | less -XeiS --shift 10
