mysqldump <databasename> <tablename>

mysqldump database will dump all the tables for that database, just redirect it into a text file ( > somefile.sql )

mysqldump eq > Backup.sql

Will backup your whole database into a file called Backup.sql. To restore the database just drop your current one and then source in the file.
