clean dump request

[nsjarvis]

Please could you make a clean version of the dump command that does not include a comment as the first line, and does not include spaces on subsequent lines. This would enable the result of ccdb dump to be compared with a file that might have been used to create the ccdb table, without writing extra scripts to clean up the ccdb dump output.

dump command is just an alias to cat command. 'cat' has a lot of flags to control what you would like to have:

ccdb help cat
Show data values for assignment.

Usage:
    cat <request or table path>
    cat --id <assignment_id>   #Where assignment_id provided by 'vers <table path>' command

Formatting flags:

    -c  or --comments     - Show comments on/off
    -nc or --no-comments

    -ph or --horizontal   - Print table horizontally
    -pa or --vertical     - Print table vertically
    (If no '--horizontal' or '--vertical' flag is given, the layout of table is determined automatically:
    vertical layout if table has only 1 row and more than 3 columns, horizontal otherwise)

    -b  or --borders      - Switch show borders on of off
    -nb or --no-borders

    -h  or --header       - Show header on/off
    -nh or --no-header

    -t  or --time         - Show time
    -nt or --no-time

Examples:
    > cat /test/test_vars/test_table               #print latest data for test_table
    > cat /test/test_vars/test_table::subtest      #print latest data in subtest variation
    > cat /test/test_vars/test_table:::2012-08     #print data latest for august 2012

See also 'dump' command which is 'cat' formatted to save data to files. 'help dump'

To be exact dump is:

cat --no-borders --no-header --comments --time --horizontal

you need

cat --no-borders --no-header --no-comments --no-time --horizontal

I'm not sure what is meant about the spaces.
