system is local to the system running the mysql client.  See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-commands.html.

'load data infile'
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/load-data.html) and 'select ...
into outfile ...' (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/select.html)
are good starting points.
