Use sql-mode - it comes with emacs 21.

type

M-x sql-mysql

which will open a interactive sql session in a buffer connected to
mysql (you will be prompted for user, password and database.

In another buffer open a new file. type 

M-x sql-mode

To put the buffer into sql mode. Now you can enter sql commands in
this buffer and the output can be sent to the interactive sql buffer
via keystrokes or via the menu at the top of the frame.

The command 

M-x sql-help

should give you some more info on sql mode.

MySQL and emacs

[Julian Saunders]

Hi,

I'm new to emacs and I'm trying to run MySQL from emacs.  Can someone
please provide me with step by step information to do this.  I'm
confused by the info. I've found on the www thus far and everything I've
tried has not worked.  I'm using emacs 21.2.2 on  Win98.

Thanks,
Julian
