MySQL table patcher

Reads a table creation file (tables.sql) and compares it to what mysqldump gives, and creates SQL clauses to update the database to match the creation file.

This program does not update a database. It only
produces update scripts (which show the differences).

GNU make is probably required.
mysqldump is also required. This program handles only MySQL tables indeed.
