+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+The
+\fBmysqlshow\fR
+client can be used to quickly see which databases exist, their tables, or a table\'s columns or indexes\&.
+.PP
+\fBmysqlshow\fR
+provides a command\-line interface to several SQL
+SHOW
+statements\&. The same information can be obtained by using those statements directly\&. For example, you can issue them from the
+\fBmysql\fR
+client program\&.
+.PP
+Invoke
+\fBmysqlshow\fR
+like this:
+.sp
+.if n \{\

+.RE
+.PP
+The output displays only the names of those databases, tables, or columns for which you have some privileges\&.
+.PP
+If the last argument contains shell or SQL wildcard characters (\(lq*\(rq,
+\(lq?\(rq,
+\(lq%\(rq, or
+\(lq_\(rq), only those names that are matched by the wildcard are shown\&. If a database name contains any underscores, those should be escaped with a backslash (some Unix shells require two) to get a list of the proper tables or columns\&.
+\(lq*\(rq
+and
+\(lq?\(rq
+characters are converted into SQL
+\(lq%\(rq
+and
+\(lq_\(rq
+wildcard characters\&. This might cause some confusion when you try to display the columns for a table with a
+\(lq_\(rq
+in the name, because in this case,
+\fBmysqlshow\fR
+shows you only the table names that match the pattern\&. This is easily fixed by adding an extra
+\(lq%\(rq
+last on the command line as a separate argument\&.
+.PP
+\fBmysqlshow\fR
+supports the following options, which can be specified on the command line or in the
+[mysqlshow]

+option file groups\&.
