I noticed the 9.1 release notes claim that the new EDITOR_LINENUMBER_SWITCH thing is an environment variable, whereas it is actually a psql variable.
This is perhaps sort of a Freudian slip. Since the editor itself is configured using an environment variable, shouldn't any configuration about the editor also be an environment variable, so people can configure them together? Another thought is that this whole thing could be done away with if we just allowed people to pass through arbitrary options to the editor, like \edit file.sql +50 -a -b -c For powerusers, this could have interesting possibilities. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
