List of all MySQL commands:
Note that all text commands must be first on line and end with ';'
?         (\?) Synonym for `help'.
clear     (\c) Clear command.
connect   (\r) Reconnect to the server. Optional arguments are db and host.
delimiter (\d) Set statement delimiter. NOTE: Takes the rest of the line as new delimiter.
ego       (\G) Send command to mysql server, display result vertically.
exit      (\q) Exit mysql. Same as quit.
go        (\g) Send command to mysql server.
help      (\h) Display this help.
notee     (\t) Don't write into outfile.
print     (\p) Print current command.
prompt    (\R) Change your mysql prompt.
quit      (\q) Quit mysql.
rehash    (\#) Rebuild completion hash.
source    (\.) Execute an SQL script file. Takes a file name as an argument.
status    (\s) Get status information from the server.
tee       (\T) Set outfile [to_outfile]. Append everything into given outfile.
use       (\u) Use another database. Takes database name as argument.
charset   (\C) Switch to another charset. Might be needed for processing binlog with multi-byte charsets.
warnings  (\W) Show warnings after every statement.
nowarning (\w) Don't show warnings after every statement.


For server side help, type 'help contents'

这段输出主要包含两部分信息：

第一部分为MYSQL客户端相关的小命令，其对应的中文翻译如下：

?	(\?)	显示帮助信息。与\h的功能相同
clear	(\c)	不执行当前正在输入的命令。若\c前已包含命令分隔符，则命令分隔符之前的部分仍然执行。
connect	(\r)	重新连接到服务器。该命令有两个参数：数据库名和服务器主机名，其中主机名可省略。
delimiter	(\d)	修改命令分隔符
ego	(\G)	将命令的结果以垂直的形式显示
exit	(\q)	退出
go	(\g)	向服务器发送命令。在语句的最后使用，可替代命令分隔符。
help	(\h)	显示帮助信息。与\?的功能相同
notee	(\t)	不要写入OUTFILE
print	(\p)	显示当前执行的命令
prompt	(\R)	修改MYSQL的提示符
quit	(\q)	退出
rehash	(\#)
source	(\.)	执行参数文件中的SQL脚本
status	(\s)	获取服务器端状态
tee	(\T)	指定一个输出文件，将命令行中的所有操作及结果记入此文件
use	(\u)	转换当前使用的数据库
charset	(\C)	转换当前connection及client的字符集
warnings	(\W)	显示警告信息
nowarning	(\w)	不显示警告信息

示例：

mysql> select count(*) from newname\c
mysql> select count(*) from newname;\c
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|      159 |
+----------+

mysql>\R this is mysql5 >
PROMPT set to 'this is mysql5 >'
this is mysql5 >\. h:\select.sql
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|      159 |
+----------+

this is mysql5 >\s

第二部分为查看MYSQL服务端相关信息的命令，使用help contents可以查看其用法：

mysql> help contents
You asked for help about help category: "Contents"
For more information, type 'help <item>', where <item> is one of the following
categories:
   Account Management
   Administration
   Data Definition
   Data Manipulation
   Data Types
   Functions
   Functions and Modifiers for Use with GROUP BY
   Geographic Features
   Language Structure
   Plugins
   Storage Engines
   Stored Routines
   Table Maintenance
   Transactions
   Triggers

对于某些help命令的结果，仍然可以使用help进行进一步的查看。如help Data Types的结果如下：

mysql> help Data Types
You asked for help about help category: "Data Types"
For more information, type 'help <item>', where <item> is one of the following
topics:
   AUTO_INCREMENT
   BIGINT
   BINARY
   BIT
   BLOB
   BLOB DATA TYPE
   BOOLEAN
   CHAR
   CHAR BYTE
   DATE
   DATETIME
   DEC
   DECIMAL
   DOUBLE
   DOUBLE PRECISION
   ENUM
   FLOAT
   INT
   INTEGER
   LONGBLOB
   LONGTEXT
   MEDIUMBLOB
   MEDIUMINT
   MEDIUMTEXT
   SET DATA TYPE
   SMALLINT
   TEXT
   TIME
   TIMESTAMP
   TINYBLOB
   TINYINT
   TINYTEXT
   VARBINARY
   VARCHAR
   YEAR DATA TYPE

仍然可以使用help INT，查看INT数据类型的详细信息：

mysql> help INT
Name: 'INT'
Description:
INT[(M)] [UNSIGNED] [ZEROFILL]


A normal-size integer. The signed range is -2147483648 to 2147483647.
The unsigned range is 0 to 4294967295.

由结果可以查看INT类型的用法，以及INT数据类型能表示的数据范围。
