That should be doable; you'd just have to do some ereport(NOTICE) variant inside pgstat_report_progress and have a switch to turn it on and off, and have psql do something with it. The latter is really the interesting part; the former is relatively easy once the general framework is in place. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
