+.SH "SYNOPSIS"

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+displays information about
+FULLTEXT
+indexes in
+MyISAM
+tables\&. It reads the
+MyISAM
+index file directly, so it must be run on the server host where the table is located\&. Before using
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR, be sure to issue a
+FLUSH TABLES
+statement first if the server is running\&.
+.PP
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+scans and dumps the entire index, which is not particularly fast\&. On the other hand, the distribution of words changes infrequently, so it need not be run often\&.
+.PP
+Invoke
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+like this:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+shell> \fBmyisam_ftdump [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB] \fR\fB\fItbl_name\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIindex_num\fR\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+The
+\fItbl_name\fR
+argument should be the name of a
+MyISAM
+table\&. You can also specify a table by naming its index file (the file with the
+\&.MYI
+suffix)\&. If you do not invoke
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+in the directory where the table files are located, the table or index file name must be preceded by the path name to the table\'s database directory\&. Index numbers begin with 0\&.
+.PP
+Example: Suppose that the
+test
+database contains a table named
+mytexttablel
+that has the following definition:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+CREATE TABLE mytexttable
+(
+ id INT NOT NULL,
+ txt TEXT NOT NULL,
+ PRIMARY KEY (id),
+ FULLTEXT (txt)
+);
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+The index on
+id
+is index 0 and the
+FULLTEXT
+index on
+txt
+is index 1\&. If your working directory is the
+test
+database directory, invoke
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+as follows:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+shell> \fBmyisam_ftdump mytexttable 1\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+If the path name to the
+test
+database directory is
+/usr/local/mysql/data/test, you can also specify the table name argument using that path name\&. This is useful if you do not invoke
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+in the database directory:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+shell> \fBmyisam_ftdump /usr/local/mysql/data/test/mytexttable 1\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+You can use
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
+to generate a list of index entries in order of frequency of occurrence like this:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+shell> \fBmyisam_ftdump \-c mytexttable 1 | sort \-r\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+\fBmyisam_ftdump\fR
