Strictly speaking, in the randomly defined grammer of psql, \gc is \g with an argument of 'c' (try it, it works). I'm not sure what use case you envision for this feature. Obviously, this is for queries with large result sets. I'd guess that people will not normally look at those result sets interactively. If the target audience is instead psql scripting, you don't really need the most convenient command possible. A \set variable would make sense to me. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
