Not sure about zsh's Ctrl-C, but in bash I press Esc-# and a # is prepended to the current line and entered into the history. This is what I use when I want to review some manpage or something. It also "works" in psql, but unsurprisingly it also prepends #. We could fix it by having it prepend -- instead, or maybe enclose the current editing buffer in /* */. (This only works in a single line fashion in bash, but I don't see why we couldn't make it work multiline in psql.) -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
