    <p>Run <a class="reference external" href="http://webyog.com/en/">SQLyog</a> on Linux with
<a class="reference external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_(software)">WINE</a>. You can
<a class="reference external" href="http://code.google.com/p/sqlyog/downloads/list">download the sqlyog windows
installer</a> and just
run it with WINE. SQLyog is my favourite GUI client. It is lightweight
and powerful. I use the community edition which comes free. The paid
versions of the app are awesome. I particularly miss the autocomplete
feature. This feature autocompletes table names, field names, query
commands etc. on tab press. I have used the MySQL query browser, but
there's no comparison.</p>
<p>The problem with SQLyog being that it runs only on windows :( . I tried
alternatives - phpmyadmin, MySQL query browser - but none of them quite
measured up against SQLyog. So I decided to try and get it working on my
linux box ( Ubuntu Maverick - 10.10 ). I use Wine version wine-1.3.11 .
Downloaded the latest installer from the community edition project page.
Ran the installer with Wine and voila! That was it :)</p>
