When I chose the Tar & Gzip option, not it compressed the file into a series of folders that matched the destination directory, which is odd.

So, if I chose "/Users/myaccount/Backups" as the destination, it would create an archive that contained that folder structure, so when I expand it, I actually have: "/Users/myaccount/Backups/Users/myaccount/Backups/".

Other than that, and the option to add "DROP TABLE", it's a lot better than using phpMyAdmin for backups.

Thanks for a needed app.

Do you want to add the "Drop tables" before each "create tables" in the backup file ? If it's that there is no problem to add this ;)

For the compression problem I will take a look to correct that.

Thanks Simon
