MySQL from the command line

I was wondering if there was a way to setup MySQL so that you can operate it from the command line. I am new to XAMPP and we have it at my work place and I was wondering if I could setup it up so that I can access MySQL from the prompt instead of the GUI.

Thanks

MySQL itself have no GUI, only commandline tools.

AFAIK the bin-dir in LAMPP is "/opt/lampp/bin".
