+1 to this, and also +1 to Tom's suggestion of making it more strongly enforced. > One open question is whether psql output pasted into documentation, in > particular .sgml files, should preserve the trailing whitespace that > psql produces. This is currently done inconsistently. I think pasting psql output verbatim isn't such a great idea anyway. Maybe it's okay for certain specific examples, but in most cases I think it'd be better to produce native SGML tables instead of <programoutput> stuff. After all, it's the result set that's interesting, not the way psql presents it. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
