I'm not sure what Christopher mentioned is the correct fix. The information is displayed correctly in all places except where a pg_get_.* function is used (indexes, constraints, etc.). Those functions are tailored to what pg_dump requires (escaped identifier: """vers""ion""") rather than what psql requires (unescaped identifier: "vers"ion"). Right now psql shows a mix of both. > Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote: > > > As a result of the constraint output functions being shared between > > > pg_dump and psql, some of the output is mis-quoted in the display area > > > for columns including quotes.
