Not if they're written according to spec, I think. There is an EOF marker consisting of 2 blocks of zeroes (which pg_dump is failing to create correctly, but that's a bug not a feature). Possibly you could strip the EOF marker though, if the file join code is allowed to be something smarter than "cat". regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
