Hi, I'm interested in piping out the contents of a mysql table to stdout in tab-separated value format, but:
- using 'select * into outfile' can't write to stdout. - mysqldump --fields-... requires --tab, which requires an output file path. - I also tried mkfifo /tmp/pipe and "select * into outfile '/tmp/pipe'", but mysql complains about the file existing already. Is there any other quick way to do this without having to write a client app?
