Yes, I am getting your emails, but I have more than you to please. Are others OK with $COLUMNS controlling screen output and file/pipe, or perhaps COLUMNS controlling only file/pipe, as GNU ls does? I have heard a few people say they only want \pset columns to control file/pipe. I have outlined the GNU ls behavior in a email I just sent. -- Bruce Momjian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
