You don't necessarily have to. Basically, those are command line instructions to MySQL to print the statement and execute it, respectively. They probably work from the file like that just fine. Just type them normally. Typically, most people use a semicolon (;) instead of \g to send commands because it's 50% less typing. :) For example: mysql> select NOW() \p\g -------------- select NOW() -------------- +---------------------+ | NOW() | +---------------------+ | 2002-10-01 21:40:29 | +---------------------+ 1 row in set (0.29 sec) For other MySQL commands, type a question mark or \h at the MySQL command prompt. mysql> ?
