Bug #15097 missing LF at end of version string of mysql.exe

Submitted:	21 Nov 2005 13:16	Modified:	9 Dec 2005 19:47

Status:	Closed	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Server: Command-line Clients	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	5.0.16	OS:	Windows (Win XP)
Assigned to:	Kristian Nielsen	CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
when calling 'mysql --version' the 'Copyright ...' sting is shown on the same line and not - as for all other command line tools, if present - in the next line:

c:\MySQL\mysql-pro-gpl-5.0.15-win32\bin\mysql.exe  Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.15, for Win32 (ia32)Copyright (C) 2002 MySQL AB

...

c:\MySQL\mysql-pro-gpl-5.0.15-win32\bin\mysqlmanager.exe Ver 0.2-alpha for Win32 on ia32
Copyright (C) 2003, 2004 MySQL AB

...

How to repeat:
mysql --help | head -10
and check against
mysqlmanager --help | head -10

Suggested fix:
add missing LF to end of version string

It looks that this appears only on Windows, I could not reproduce it with current 5.0.17-bk on Linux (Suse 9.3).

sorry, it should have been 'mysql --help' in the description (as listed in 'how to repeat). '--version' doesn't show a Copyright string.
