If you're fixing the dashed-line code, is there a way to say that we never have more than a reasonable number of dashes (ideally, the width of the terminal) no matter how wide the data is? Having 4000 dashes because of large text on one row is kinda painful, and not at all useful. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
