You could use ledit, piped with psql works great. I use it with sqlplus
from Oracle too, adds me readline functions sqlplus doesnt have:

Under Debian GNU/Linux:

$ apt-cache search ledit   
ledit - A line editor for interactive programs.

It has some OpenCAML dependencies, beware.

After:

$ ledit | psql yourdatabase

...my 2 cents
