Re: Where do I enter commands?

I'm a writer. I studied programing and MySQL so I could create websites
that I can publish my articles to. I don't have time to keep up with the
endless technology - MySQL, PDO, stored procedures, PHP, JavaScript,
JQuery, and on and on - especially when I have to work for a living. I've
been using MySQL for years, so I'm familiar with it. It therefore makes
sense for me to find a GUI as similar to MySQL as possible.

With phpMyAdmin, I can easily create, modify, copy and migrate tables
between databases. If that can be done as easily with a command-line-tool,
even after surviving the learning curve, then I'm interested. But it's
really hard to imagine how that could be.

Thanks for the tips.
