Would it work to make \d tab-completable in a way that showed both the commands that are available and the objects they describe? e.g. \d<tab> would show something like \dt [tables] \ds [sequences] \dv [views] ... (the way it's shown now shows what completions are available, but not what they mean. Also, both \d and \D should be shown in any case) -- Alvaro Herrera (<alvherre[a]dcc.uchile.cl>) "Los romanticos son seres que mueren de deseos de vida" ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
