working with mySQL databases beyond phpmyadmin..

[cutcopypaste]

just wondering if there's any ideas about what to use for creating/modifying mysql dbs other than phpmyadmin. i've been learning phpmyadmin in class based on it being free and already on most webservers, but still wondered if there's a more efficient option for development. I run both pc and mac too so I'd be interested in options for both systems.

MySQL offers some tools for download: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html

I use these and phpMyAdmin but I suppose you could use just one or the other.

never tried the mysql query browser, it's apparently quite good, but i've been using HeidiSQL too long to switch -- i love it!!!

I've been a fan of mysql tools for years.
