how to view long text output.

eos's profile image eos posted 9 years ago in General Permalink
If I do something like
select argument from mysql.general_log
The data is very long text, which gets truncated in the output window. Is there a way to get the text to wrap, add a hor. scroll bar or similar so I can see all of it?
If I hover, it shows, more, but is still truncated.
I found one solution: set "lines of test in grid rows" to 5, but this affects everything, not just the long lines, and is only an approximate solution.
Any ideas?
I could of course save the data to file, and read that, but that's not tenable in this case.
