Permanently save login password for mysql client

 If you find it a nuisance to constantly type the mysql password while working with mysql, you can tell it to save, and thereafter it won't ask for it. WARNING. This exposes your database to hackers in that if they gain access to your account, your copy of mysql is also vulneralble.

The command is:

mysql_config_editor set --host=localhost --user=<whoever> --password
