How to use the mysql I just installed? I have installed mysql in Mac OS X 10.6.6. However I don't know how to get to the mysql prompt.  

Sarbbottam-Bandyopadhyays-MacBook-Pro:bin sarbbottam$ pwd  
/usr/local/mysql/bin
Sarbbottam-Bandyopadhyays-MacBook-Pro:bin sarbbottam$ mysql  
-bash: mysql: command not found  
Sarbbottam-Bandyopadhyays-MacBook-Pro:bin sarbbottam$  


Any thoughts?
An alternative for newbies (and webdevelopers) is MAMP and phpMyAdmin (that comes bundled with MAMP). Maybe worth a thought.
