like_or_where:
LIKE 'pattern'
| WHERE expr
If the syntax for a given SHOW statement includes a LIKE 'pattern'
part, 'pattern' is a string that can contain the SQL "%" and "_"
wildcard characters. The pattern is useful for restricting statement
output to matching values.
Several SHOW statements also accept a WHERE clause that provides more
flexibility in specifying which rows to display. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/extended-show.html.
mysql> ? show create table
Name: 'SHOW CREATE TABLE'
Description:
Syntax:
SHOW CREATE TABLE tbl_name
Shows the CREATE TABLE statement that creates the named table. To use
this statement, you must have some privilege for the table. This
statement also works with views.
SHOW CREATE TABLE quotes table and column names according to the value
of the sql_quote_show_create option. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/server-system-variables.html.
URL: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/show-create-table.html
Examples:
mysql> SHOW CREATE TABLE t\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Table: t
Create Table: CREATE TABLE t (
id INT(11) default NULL auto_increment,
s char(60) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
