+&nbsp;In order to perform actions with data dumps, you must use the "File->Import; File->Export" menu options of Sequel Pro. A variety
+of exports/dumps can be performed: Sequel Pro dump, Export of Table Content Results (csv or xml format), Export of Custom
+Query Results (csv or xml format), or Export of Multiple Table data (csv or xml format). On the other hand, you can only import a
+Sequel Pro dump or a CSV file.

+ <li>The following characters are escaped: the escaped-character itself, the line ends character, the enclosed character (if given) and the fields terminated character if no enclosed character is given</li>
+ <li>NULL values are written without enclosed character. If it is enclosed, it is interpreted as a string.</li>
+ <li>When importing a csv, unenclosed \N is also interpreted as NULL (this format is used by mysqldump)</li>
