How to convert huge .sql database to a table on mac?

Hey guys, I have a massive .sql data dump (6.6gb) how can I make this into a readable table? I tried splitting it but I can't really view it in a readable fashion. Btw I'm on mac.

    I suspect your question means "how do I import sql dump to new database?" Is that true? What dbms are you planning on using?

    What do you mean, splitting it? What exactly did you try so far?

    I'd probably install xampp, import the dump via the command line, check back in a few hours then use http://localhost/phpmyadmin to look at the table.
