Description:
Could the source command be added to MySQLC.exe?

Differences between mysql.exe and mysqlc.exe:
MySQL.exe:
ego     (\G)    Send command to mysql server, display result vertically.
notee   (\t)    Don't write into outfile.
prompt  (\R)    Change your mysql prompt.
source  (\.)    Execute a SQL script file. Takes a file name as an argument.
tee     (\T)    Set outfile [to_outfile]. Append everything into given outfile.

MySQLC.exe:
edit    (\e)    Edit command with $EDITOR

How to repeat:
c:\> mysqlc
mysql> source d.sql;
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax.  Check the manual that corresp
onds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'source d.sql

As mysqlc is not supported in MySQL 4.1.8 and above (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/windows-testing.html), this feature will never be implemented.
