It turns out that running psql -f - already used to print psql:<stdin>:1: ERROR: blah except that it got broken between 8.4 and 9.0 (commit b291c0fb), and now prints psql:-:1: ERROR: blah I'll try to find a way to fix that and integrate it with the change I'm proposing. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
