-H, --no-header Suppress header row.
-F, --no-footer Suppress footer row.
-p, --no-pretty-print Turn off pretty printing. By default results are printed in an
ascii table format which looks nice but is not conducive to manipulating the
output with unix tools. This option prints output plainly in a tab separated
format.
-d Specify an alternative column delimiter. If no delimiter is
-d, --delimiter char Specify an alternative column delimiter. If no delimiter is
specified, columns will be delimited by a tab character if pretty printing
(-p) is turned off. If pretty printing is enabled this option is meaningless.
-i Specify an input file. This option allows an input file containing the SQL to be passed to mdb-sql. See Notes.
-o Specify an output file. This option allows the name of an output file to be used instead of stdout.

COMMANDS
mdb-sql in interactive mode takes some special commands.
connect to <database> If no database was specified on the command line this command is necessary before any querys are issued. It also allows the switching of databases once in the tool.
disconnect Will disconnect from the current database.
go Each batch is sent to the parser using the 'go' command.
reset A batch can be cleared using the 'reset' command.
list tables The list tables command will display a list of available tables in this database, similar to the mdb-tables utility on the command line.
describe table <table> Will display the column information for the specified table.
quit Will exit the tool.
