MySQL has a command line tool found in the bin directory.
on widows this is usually in:
c:\MySQL\bin
or
c:\program files\mysql server %version%\MySQL\bin
I don't know where it resides on *nix

once there just log in using mysql -u username -p

it will prompt you for a password and whola, you can start running queries.

to change to your database, just use "use %database%;"
