Description:
When issued the below command for all tables within a database...
 
myisamchk --recover --analyze --sort-index --sort-records=1 --verbose F:\mysql\data\test\*.MYI

First issue: for a table without an index. It displays the below error:

myisamchk: error: Can't sort table 'F:\mysql\data\test\billtype.MYI' on key 1;
No such key

and lets marked the table as crashed.

Second issue: the process stops once a compressed table is encountered.
I would prefer myisamchk to just continue with the next table.

How to repeat:
Create a database with tables without index and tables compressed.
Apply the command showed.

One more problem.

When :

myisamchk -r -a 

is invoked, then only first one is executed and second never.

"marked the table as crashed." - fixed in 4.0.15
other two issues - cannot repeat.
