Version 0.7 of MySQL Backup for lazy sysadmins
Release Notes: The "defaults-extra-file" config option was added, which can be used instead of specifying the username/password/host directly in the config file. The "dbhost" config paramater is now also used for the backup filename. If you use the new "defaults-extra-file" for remote backups, this key is still needed to set the filename. Code formatting and minor fixes were done.
