I looked for a way to scan database for a specific table. For example i have:

Database: system_ultimate Table: system_settings

And let us say, that one doesn't know precise name of the table. He only knows, that it is some how connected to word settings. How could he search for that table name then?

I understand, that usually people who develop know, what they develop, but I'm trying to get hang of MVC and I'm trying to stay as far away as possible from direct communication with table using the name.

I know, that to see all tables I could use SHOW TABLES;
