mysqldump "one liner" backup

[Matteo Tassinari]

Hi everybody!

I'm opening the topic to ask you if there is a way to use mysqldump to create a backup of a database to an .sql file with ALL whitespaces removed, except obviously for those which are absolutely necessary, something like you can do with a php_strip_whitespaces() if you're familiar with PHP, just to make an example.

I've looked in the docs but found nothing... am I missing something?

Thanks in advance for the help =)
