I have a mySQL database (*.sql) on my mac. I want to quickly read through the entries in some of the tables. Is there an opensource or otherwise free tool I can use to do this?

Just to clarify — I do not have MySQL on my Mac, just the *.sql file.

You can use the MySQL command line interface. Just open the Terminal and type mysql. Otherwise there are several available UI programs depending on what you’re doing. Eclipse has a plugin you can use if you’re developing in Java, otherwise your best bet is to download phpmyadmin.
Those are the two main tools available and they’re both free. However, both require some setup time.
Good luck!

MySql has a command line client. That would work.
