xemacs and mysql

[jonathan]

Hello All,

I have been out of the development game for awhile and diving back in.
Back in the day, I used to love running sql clients from emacs.  I have
tried to recreate the environment -- but to no avail.  I would love
some help.

I am using, xemacs 21.4 (patch 19) on cygwin on XP.  And I have a mysql
database that I want to interact with.

I know the there is a Meta-x sql-mysql  -- but after I log in, and try
to send buffers or regions to it I get "No SQL process started"

Is there additional configuration that I need to do?

I just want to be able to run mysql from emacs.  Or -- am I being silly
-- are there better clients out there to run mysql.  Please help!

Thanks,

Jonathan
