125 <h2>EXAMPLES</h2>
126 <p>To export all data in user and user_info tables from a MySQL server running on a local machine
127 using username/password from DBI_USER and DBI_PASS environmental variables, type:</p>
128 <div class="ExampleBox">
129 % DBTablesToTextFiles.pl -o user user_info</div>
130 <p>To describe user and user_info tables in a MySQL server running on a remote machine using explicit
131 username/password and capturing the output into a DescribeTables.csv file, type:</p>
132 <div class="ExampleBox">
133 % DBTablesToTextFiles.pl --dbdriver mysql --dbuser &lt;name&gt; --dbpassword
134 &lt;pasword&gt; --dbname mysql --dbhost &lt;mysqlhostname.org&gt;
135 -r DescribeTable -m describetable -o user user_info</div>
