XAMPP MySQL

Does anybody know how to run MySQL in XAMPP just from the command prompt using xampp_shell (rather than using phpadmin)?

XAMPP MySQL

Sorry, I got it. The objective is to use MySQL without phpMyAdmin. If you are also new to the package, the following may help:

1. start MySQL server (for example by double clicking on mysql_start in the installation folder).
2. start the same way xampp_shell in the same folder.
3. type mysql --user =root -p
4. you are prompted for the password; press enter if you did not change the password.
5. you are in the mysql>
6. start using it...
