There's propably a more refined way to do this, but this simple hack
should do the trick.
(Substitute HOST, USER and PASS with values matching your site):
--start backup.sh--
#!/bin/sh
for i in `echo show databases|mysql -s -hHOST -uUSER -pPASS`
do
mysqldump -hHOST -uUSER -pPASS --opt $i > $i.sql
done
--end backup.sh--
--
