Bug description:  to run a mysql script from php

Description:
------------
hello
I launched this problem on several forums ( like phpbuilder), but I
haven't got an answer for it.

I have a mysql script, which I can run from the mysql command prompt with:

mysql> \. out.txt  // out.txt is the name of the script file located in
c:\mysql\bin

The script run without problems, in fact it contains only 2 lines :
 use test
 select * from table1
Now, I would wish to run the script from a php program too, with the
command:
mysql_query("\\. out.txt");

I received an error message, which indicated me a SYNTAX error in the
appropiate line...

I tried to use the fullpath of the script:
mysql_query("\\. C:\\mysql\\bin\\out.txt"), but I got the same error
message.

I think there is a BUG, because I couldn't discover any syntax error (I
escaped all the backslashes).

I discovered, that you couldn't run any of the "short-hand" mysql-commands
from php, like \h.

Could you send me answer, please? at the forums, even senior members
weren't able to solve my problem.

Thanks in advance!
