Indeed. Still, it seems like this has more downside than upside. It seems likely to break some peoples' scripts, and where exactly is the groundswell of complaint that the existing format is unreadable? TBH, I've not heard even one complaint about that before today. On the other hand, the number of complaints we will get if we change the format is likely to be more than zero. 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
