SHOW TABLE STATUS
Synopsis
SHOW TABLE STATUS [FROMdatabase] [LIKE 'pattern']
This statement displays status
information on a set of tables from a database. To obtain the status
of tables from a database other than the current default one, use the
FROM clause. The results will include information
on all of the tables of the database unless the
LIKE clause is used to limit the tables displayed
by a naming pattern.

Comment:In this example, the number of tables is
limited to one, because a specific table name is given in the
LIKE clause without the %
wildcard. Incidentally, the display here is not in the typical ASCII
table format, because the statement ends with a \G
instead of the usual semicolon. You can change some of these
variables or table options using the ALTER TABLE
statement.
