Here you go:

me@mybox> clone_table.sh tablename newtablename database

where clone_table.sh is an executable file containing this:

--------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# table clone hack, no warranty, public domain
echo "show create table $1;" | mysql -E $3 \
| sed -e "1,2d" -e "s/^Create Table: //" \
      -e "s/TABLE \`$1\`/TABLE \`$2\`/" | mysql $3
---------------------------------------------------

Have fun!
