Thanks for the responses everyone. Just a quick FYI, I am using Python as an intermediary to sync the DBs (I'm fine with using whatever as long as it's Debian compatible). I suppose I should have explained before, but I'm using the Python script to connect from a "client" machine to a "server" machine which is why I prefer a command to be able to 'sync' the data. Although I will have DB access on the "server", there is no guarantee that I'll have actual disk write access. Hence, again, the need to be able to query for the command so as to write it to a text file on the "client" machine for use, etc. Sort of a "hey, server, what would it take to make table BLAH if I wanted to recreate it completely?" kind of thing.


There's no one command, but you can build it by pulling the information you need from:

SHOW FIELDS FROM table
SHOW KEYS FROM table

And then of course a select on the table. I have some PHP code that does this, and it's only 50 lines or so.
