It's conceptually the same. Both allow you to enter in commands to either
execute code in batch or enter program names to be excuted. I'm not sure
about Win platforms. But, in the *.nix environments you have a choice
of different shells. And, also you can run things in the background and
a host of other capabilties. For your purposes, typing in mysql.
In theory it should be the same. But, I have not used mysql on a Win platform.

What I am asking is the difference between a shell and a dos prompt
vis-a-vis mysql.


Thank you.
