+.PP
+\fBmysql_setpermission\fR
+is a Perl script that was originally written and contributed by Luuk de Boer\&. It interactively sets permissions in the MariaDB grant tables\&.
+\fBmysql_setpermission\fR
+is written in Perl and requires that the
+DBI
+and
+DBD::MariaDB
+Perl modules be installed\&.
+.PP
+Invoke
+\fBmysql_setpermission\fR
+like this:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+shell> \fBmysql_setpermission [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB]\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+\fIoptions\fR
+should be either
+\fB\-\-help\fR
+to display the help message, or options that indicate how to connect to the MariaDB server\&. The account used when you connect determines which permissions you have when attempting to modify existing permissions in the grant tables\&.
+.PP
+\fBmysql_setpermission\fR
+also reads options from the
+[client]
+and
+[perl]
+groups in the
+\&.my\&.cnf
+file in your home directory, if the file exists\&.
+.PP
+\fBmysql_setpermission\fR
+supports the following options:
