Ignore the asshole. Some people would rather spend more energy telling
you to go somewhere else than to simply answer your question. Although
its not a PHP question is certainly is related so let me give you one
place to start. If your using a command line in a windows environment
you can right click on the top title bar, then click properties and
select the layout tab and change the screen buffer size.

As for external clients I love query browser from the mysql developers.
Heres the link: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html

Hope this helps.
