I think you were being asked to try running it from the command prompt
(cmd.exe) -- it won't work from the Python prompt, of course.

I'm
just building something for a client. I tried running the mysqldump
command
from the python prompt. Didn't know I could do that :) It tells me
"mysqldump is not defined" :(

As I said, I only got a blank file when the actual command itself
failed. How do you dump the MySQL database itself without using Python?
Just run the 'mysqldump' command from the prompt. Is that what you are
asking?
Are you running this on Windows? What OS? You do have the 'mysqldump'
command available from the shell prompt and in your path, right?
