> 'Describe Extended' dumps information about a table. The protocol for sending 
> this data relies on tabs and newlines to separate pieces of data. If a table 
> has 'FIELDS terminated by XXX' or 'LINES terminated by XXX' where XXX is a 
> tab or newline then the output seen by the user is prematurely truncated. Fix 
> this by replacing tabs and newlines in the table description with “\n” and 
> “\t”.
