From Google searches and some experience, it appears that it's a long-standing situation that, if you run the mysql.exe client program under mintty or rxvt from Cygwin, then mysql figures that it's not on an interactive terminal and therefore does not prompt. Is there yet any workaround other than simply using cmd.exe instead? (In mintty, BTW, "cmd /c mysql ..." doesn't prompt, presumably for the same reason that mysql alone doesn't prompt.)
