Try CPAN. There's some free wrappers out there:
"MyOracle" emulates MySQL but it's a bit clunky and has bad error handling
on exit.
"fsql" is written in C and is fast but has very limited login capability. It
does not mimic MySQL's show tables command.
"YASQL" (Yet another SQL) is also a Perl wrapper but it's not bad. Show
tables works and the up arrow is OK. Has good login capability for SQL*Net
but it echos passwords to the screen.
The best approach is to just get over MySQL addiction and learn to love
SQL*Plus with all it's shortcomings. :-)

On HP-UX use 'ied' command to launch sql*plus or svrmgrl session (% ied
sqlplus) . Esc-K will recall previous SQL commands (just like setting 'set
-o vi' in a KSH)
Check out a script #10 at http://www.orafaq.com/faqscrpt.htm#UNIX. It is
wrapper for sqlplus and svrmgrl to do similar things.
On NT, I guess use your arrow keys... (Not sure of that, though)..
