I thought I'd take a bash at implementing space padding part on log_line_prefix options. It's been a while since I worked with the PostgreSQL source, so please forgive me if my coding style is a bit off or the patch is not quite in the correct format. It's a little rough around the edges at the moment and likely the documentation needs more work, but I'm at the stage of wanting to know if this is even wanted or needed by people. If you apply this patch you can do things like have %10u %-10d in your log_line_prefix which will include spaces to give the option the number you specify as the minimum width. Left and right aligning is supported. Let this be the thread to collect consensus to whether this needed and useful. Regards David Rowley
