I am fairly new to MySQL and I am unfamiliar with the term "escaped form".
Can anyone point me to documentation that explains what that is and how it
can be used.
Also, I am trying to perform a backup remotely. My understanding is that
the mysqldump and mysqlhotcopy commands can only be used on the local
machine. Is this correct? What is the best way to perform a backup
remotely.
Thanks,
Jeff
