Obsoletes Matt's previous contribution for mysql history.

Line 
1This is a simple mysql history script contributed by
2Matt Hyclak <hyclak@math.ohiou.edu>

4NB : THIS SCRIPT WAS MEANT TO BE USED FOR PEOPLE WHO WANTED TO STORE
5THE PRINTING HISTORY IN A MYSQL DATABASE WHEN MYSQL WAS **NOT** SUPPORTED
6IN PYKOTA. UNLESS YOU'VE GOT REALLY SPECIAL NEEDS, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER
7THE CONTENT OF THIS DIRECTORY TO BE OUTDATED AND YOU SHOULD NOT USE IT :
8MYSQL IS NOW SUPPORTED AS THE DATABASE BACKEND FOR PYKOTA, PLEASE SEE
9../../initscripts/mysql/README.mysql FOR DETAILS.

11To use, place the mysql_history.conf file in your pykota config directory.
12This is located in the pykota user's home directory, or as a last resort in
13/etc/pykota. Modify the variables to match your setup.
14
15The mysql_history.py should be called from a posthook script. No variables need
16be passed to the script, as it extracts everything from the environment
17variables set by Pykota.
18
19The history.sql file includes the SQL statements to create the database used
20by the mysql_history.py program. This can be extended fairly trivially if you
21wish to capture extra data.
